BOOK SYNOPSIS

Harold is an iceberg… lettuce. (But he doesn’t realize the “lettuce” part because part of his sticker has ripped off.) So one day when he sees a documentary about how the icebergs are melting, Harold starts to worry, thinking that he’s melting too. As his anxiety grows and grows, and he tries to find a way to stop melting, his fellow food friends try to help him cool down in a different way.

LISA WYZLIC

Lisa Wyzlic enjoys imagining creatures and objects with Strong Feelings and telling their stories. Like her characters, Lisa often has her own Strong Feelings, though normally not about melting. She lives with her husband, two kids, and three rescue creatures in Manitoba, Canada.
