S For Story/10674446
Erika Lynn Adams' YA novel, Allie's Adventure on the Wonder, a 2025 NYC Big Book Award winner, is being featured on a billboard in NYC's theatre district.
DULUTH, Minn. - s4story -- The 2025 NYC Big Book Award is thrilled to announce that the critically acclaimed young adult novel, "Allie's Adventure on the Wonder" by Erika Lynn Adams, will be featured on a monumental digital billboard in New York City's Times Square, bringing its powerful message of self-acceptance to one of the world's busiest intersections.
The announcement celebrates the novel's recent success as a category winner in Young Adult fiction, recognizing its unique and vital contribution to the genre. The book, a reimagining of the Alice in Wonderland classic, is a semi-autobiographical story centered on a 14-year-old girl named Allie Little navigating life with Auditory Processing Disorder (APD).
The Times Square feature, scheduled to run over the weekend marks a huge milestone for the book and its author. The exposure will highlight a story that provides rare and honest insight into a condition that is often misunderstood.

Erika Lynn Adams wrote the book drawing from her own personal experiences with APD, weaving a fantastical narrative that gives readers a visceral understanding of the sensory chaos the main character faces. Allie's Adventure on the Wonder is an inspiring tale of resilience, imagination, and the journey toward finding clarity in an overwhelming world.
FALCON REVIEW by Printed Word Reviews had high praise for Adams's work, stating that the novel "stands as a brave and important contribution to young adult literature, offering a unique perspective on feeling misunderstood and ultimately, finding one's voice."
