Synopsis

Skylar, Angela, Travis, and Sophie all received superpowers from enamel pins. But now they must track down the elusive pinmaker in this epic adventure, the sequel to In Search of Superpowers: A Fantasy Pin World Adventure. But friendships are put to the test in the wake of the mysterious pinmaker's identity. Is this too much for the crew to take on?

Four kids. Four pins. Four superpowers. One dark secret. And it's getting . . . bleaker.

After a mysterious explosion during the night at the local theme park called FUNTASTIC PLAINS, Skylar, Angela, Travis, and Sophie each received an enamel pin that gave them superpowers. At first, the kids thought this was a random coincidence, but thanks to the former toymaker Mister Paul, they learn that’s likely not the case. The theme park FUNTASTIC PLAINS may have a motto of “where fun lives,” but the enamel pin crew thinks it just might be where fun goes to die. They’ll need to work together to find the elusive Pin Maker and discover the secret behind their superpowered pins . . . before there’s way more than just four kids with superpowers.

In Search of the Pinmaker is the second in an all-new adventure series, Fantasy Pin World. It's perfect for fans of Amari and the Night Brothers, The Marvellers, and, of course, enamel pin collectors.

"Delightful and engaging, Lawrence's debut is a magical, empowering adventure of friendship—you'll fall in love with the characters just as much as you'll fall in love with the pins they're collecting!" - Andrea Towers, author of the GAMER GIRLS series
