Nana's Wonder Log

By Sikho

When Nana Silvia moves in for a few weeks while her storm-damaged roof gets fixed, eight-year-old Maya Torres -- quiet, careful, terrified of being wrong out loud -- discovers the strangest object in the house: a battered forest-green notebook held shut with a rubber band, full of the wildest true things Nana has ever checked for herself. A shrimp with its heart in its head. A sloth that might outlast a dolphin underwater. A country everyone agrees on that no law ever officially named. A cliff on a faraway moon where falling takes twelve whole minutes. A star so enormous a million Earths could disappear inside it. An octopus with three hearts and blood the color of a swimming pool. And, tucked near the back, one page Nana crossed out -- a fact she got wrong and told people for fifteen years before she found out. With the school's Wonder Bee trivia night bearing down like a deadline, Maya starts keeping her own notebook, one case at a time, and learns Nana's real secret: the wild claim is never the hard part. Checking it is. Nana's Wonder Log is a warm, funny, fact-true chapter book about a grandmother, a granddaughter, and the difference between believing something and actually knowing it -- for every kid who has ever gone quiet rather than risk saying something wrong out loud.
