From an unstoppable warrior to a struggling teenage refugee, get ready to see Wonder Woman in a new light.

This is an Online Event.

New York Times bestselling author Laurie Halse Anderson (Speak, Shout) and artist Leila del Duca have reimagined Wonder Woman's origins in this timely story about the refugee experience, teenage activism, and finding the love and strength to create change.

Princess Diana of Themyscira believes that her 16th birthday will be one of new beginnings⁠— namely, acceptance into the warrior tribe of the Amazons. But her birthday celebrations are cut short when rafts carrying refugees break through the barrier that separates her island home from the outside world. When Diana defies the Amazons to try to bring the outsiders to safety, she finds herself swept away by the stormy sea. Cut off from everything she's ever known, Diana herself becomes a refugee in an unfamiliar land. Now Diana must survive in the world beyond Themyscira for the first time--a world that is filled with danger and injustice unlike anything she's ever experienced. With new battles to be fought and new friends to be made, she must redefine what it means to belong, to be an Amazon, and to make a difference. in a story about growing into one’s strength, fighting for justice, and finding home.

Wonder Woman: Tempest Tossed is more than a reboot of Wonder Woman’s origin story, weaving in real-world issues like refugee crises and child trafficking.
