<DIV><P>Freesia&#8217;s life is perfect. She lives on the beautiful tropical island of Agalinas, surrounded by idyllic weather, fancy dress shops, and peacocks who sing her favorite song to wake her up in the morning. She has so many outfits she could wear a different one every day for a year and not run out.</P><P>Lately things on the island may have been a bit flippy: sudden blackouts, students disappearing, even Freesia&#8217;s reflection looking slightly . . . off. But in Freesia&#8217;s experience, it&#8217;s better not to think about things like that too much.</P><P>Unfortunately for her, these signs are more than random blips in the universe. In Bubble World by Carol Snow, Freesia&#8217;s perfect bubble is about to pop.</DIV>
