Clarion Books, 2023

A dazzling story of grief and found family wrapped in a spellbinding fairy tale, perfect for fans of Anne Ursu and Jodi Lynn Anderson. Eleven-year-old Mira wishes everything could go back to the way it was. Before she changed schools and had to quit gymnastics. Especially before Papa died. Now she spends her days cooking and cleaning for her stepsisters and Val—who she still won’t call mom and still won’t forgive for the terrible thing she did. When a mysterious girl named Lyndame appears out of the woods wielding a powerful wand, she makes Mira an offer she can’t refuse: she will grant Mira three wishes. What if magic isn’t just pretend after all? What if these wishes could fix everything? But in the quiet town of Between, Georgia, where secrets lurk and rumors swirl of strange creatures, nothing is as it seems, and everything comes at a price. Rising talent Landra Jennings weaves together an enchanting, modern fairy tale with eloquence and compassion about finding hope after loss—and finding belonging in the places we least expect. What does it cost to get everything you’ve ever wanted? A Heartfelt Story of Grief: Eleven-year-old Mira would do anything to bring her Papa back. But as she navigates life with a stepmother she can’t forgive, she learns that moving forward is the hardest magic of all. Three Wishes Gone Wrong: When a mysterious girl offers Mira three wishes from a magical wand, it seems like the answer to her prayers. But every wish has unexpected consequences that pull her further from the life she remembers. An Unforgettable Found Family: Living with her stepsisters feels like a chore. Yet, in the most unexpected of places, Mira discovers that the family you choose can be the one that saves you. A Modern Portal Fantasy: In a small Georgia town full of secrets, a hidden world waits.
