Drowning in My Bedroom

The terrifying impact of global warming on vulnerable lives is laid bare in this gripping tale of survival from internationally bestselling author Steve Cole.

Junjun’s makeshift shack has been washed away in the flood and he needs to find medicine for his sister, who’s sick after drinking contaminated water.

Steve Cole's Drowning in My Bedroom is a gripping young adult fiction that delves into the harsh realities of nature's wrath and its impact on the lives of two teenagers. This bestseller is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the fight against illnesses, and the strength found in unexpected alliances.
