Description:
"Lisa Papademetriou's prose and sense of place dazzles the ear and eye, while the adventure and mystery binds us from page to page. Now that's sleight of hand!" -- Rita Williams-Garcia, Newbery Honor Winner "Magic! It's everywhere--in music, in moths, in an old handwritten book. But the real magic is the exquisite storytelling that sweeps us along until the last wonderful page. This is a book that leaves shimmers in the very air." -- Kathi Appelt, New York Times bestselling author of The Underneath and Keeper "A lively, heartwarming, sometimes perilous tale packed with creepy elements, appealing characters...and more than a few laughs." -- Common Sense Media "A rollicking adventure... Engaging and appealing, especially to those who have never quite fit in, this novel is sure to satisfy." -- School Library Journal "Begging to be read aloud, this is a fun book for middle grade readers, and it will surely inspire them to read--and write--more." -- Booklist "A beguiling tale of... enduring love and nascent self-discovery." -- Kirkus Reviews "The developing mystery and the promise of new friendships and second chances make for emotionally satisfying engagement... Despite the contemporary setting, the book has an old-fashioned quality of domestic fantasy that will appeal to fans of E. Nesbit and Edward Eager." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "I, for one, did not want the story to end." -- Time for Kids
