At exactly 3:03 in the morning, Zola wakes to discover something impossible outside her bedroom window-a mysterious glowing town that wasn't there before.
Crooked houses sparkle beneath the moon, trains travel through the sky, strange streets twist between magical buildings, and an enormous clock tower stands over it all. But when the clock changes to 3:04, the entire town disappears.
The following night, it returns.
And this time, an invitation is waiting.
Joined by Nova, Luna, and Flick, Zola enters the mysterious town of Three-Oh-Three and discovers a place where time has completely stopped. Flowers never finish blooming. Trains wait forever at Tomorrow Station. Swings hang frozen in the air. And the town's enormous clock is missing its minute hand.
With the help of a curious new friend named Pip, the group sets out to uncover what happened. But the deeper they travel, the more they realize that the missing minute may not have been lost at all.
Zola & Nova and the Town That Only Existed at 3:03 is a whimsical adventure about friendship, courage, memories, change, and discovering that sometimes moving forward is the beginning of something wonderful.
Perfect for young readers who enjoy magical mysteries, imaginative worlds, talking animals, fantasy adventures, and heartwarming stories.
