HarmonyC and The Kind Hands Club vs. The Fade (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781088126745)

Something is wrong at McNair Academy.

Classrooms fall silent without warning. Hallways flicker like broken screens. Fear moves faster than rumor. For months, a small blue alien named Ziggy has been monitoring the strange changes. When the signs become impossible to ignore, HarmonyC and her friends learn the truth: something called The Fade is feeding on the school's fear, anger, and isolation.

As the shadows spread, five students who are already carrying their own struggles are pulled together. Armed with nothing but courage, trust, and whatever they can carry from the classroom, they form the Kind Hands Club. Each member brings a different strength. Each carries a fear the Fade knows how to use against them.

What begins as a mystery becomes a battle for identity.

The Fade does not attack with claws or teeth. It attacks with lies. It isolates. It twists pain into silence. To fight back, the Kind Hands Club must learn to stand together when they are most afraid, speak truth when their voices shake, and choose connection over fear.

Blending fast-paced action, emotional depth, and moments of humor, HarmonyC and the Kind Hands Club vs. the Fade is an illustrated middle-grade novel about resilience, faith, and the power of choosing what is right, even when it comes at a cost. Inspired by real classroom experiences, this story reminds readers that courage can grow in unlikely places and that light returns when someone is brave enough to sing first.
