Book Description:
The population of Ooolandia (a
world much like our own but with an extra "O") is hypnotized by the
culture of MORE. Citizens of all kinds and colors go about their lives unaware
that hidden in the fog of everydayness a great calamity is approaching.
Banshooo, an amazingly mindful
monkey, works for the Ooolandian Department of Nature with his colleague a
mathlete mouse. Together they have amassed data proving, beyond any doubt, that
the natural world is losing the stability necessary to sustain life.
Unfortunately, their warnings are ignored by the authorities who are planning
to phase out nature altogether.
Freaky winds, icy earthquakes,
and mutant anemones plague the landscape. After a wildly devastating storm,
Banshooo has a vision revealing the connection between Ooolandia and the Unseen
World -- a connection that lies deep within and far beyond all that is seen.
This connection is vital to Ooolandia's survival, and it is fraying. He
realizes he must take radical action. Along with his quirky sidekick (a one-off
of unique appearance whose primary interest is snacking), he sets out on a
journey beyond the surface of the Seen to bring back proof of the true nature
of nature.
