Abigail Breslin

This delightful young lady never fails to amaze, whether she's competing for a beauty crown or running from aliens at the tender age of 5. Abby IS Nim and we can't wait.

Jodie Foster

Who doesn't love Jodie? We've watched her grow from a precocious child to one of the most respected actors of our time. There is nothing this beautiful, wonderfully gifted actress can't do. Playing Alexandra is going to be like, well, a walk on the beach.

Gerard Butler

What can we say about Gerry? He's more of a chameleon than Fred. He's the guy we've seen in all those movies but didn't realize it was him. He's tall, dark and heart-stoppingly handsome with a talent to match and it's his time to shine.

"A fantasy tale as welcome as a breath of fresh tropical air." (Starred review in Publishers Weekly, USA, Feb 19, 2001)

"Appealingly offbeat tale... Nim, with her unusual associates and just-right mix of self-reliance and vulnerability, makes a character young readers won't soon tire of." (Kirkus Reviews, USA, ..eachers can springboard many geographic or scientific studies off this novel as they read it aloud, but kids can just enjoy the fun." (School Library Journal, USA, Feb 2001)

"Wendy Orr tweaks coincidence to create a refreshing fantasy tale... With ample doses of suspense and comedy and a pleasingly sappy happily-ever-after ending, the tale portrays the improbable so cleverly that readers will want to believe everything about the likable Nim and her idyllic isle." (Los Angeles Times, December 2001)
