    Twelve-year-old Caroline Kline doesn’t believe in miracles. Not after her mom died, and certainly not after her family lost everything in Hurricane Emma. All Caroline wants to do is fit in at school, make some friends, and, above all else, just be normal. 
    But when Caroline takes a job walking Denver, her neighbor’s dog, her plans quickly get turned completely upside down. As it turns out, Denver is no ordinary dog: Not only can he talk—and not like bark-bark but in actual English—but worse than that, Denver tells Caroline that he’s been sent from the heavens with a message just for her. It’s up to Caroline to find a way to bring belief back to the world. 
    From acclaimed children’s author Iva-Marie Palmer comes a hilarious and heartwarming new tale about miracles, faith of all types, and the good that connects us all.

    In this magical adventure that's perfect for fans of Lisa Yee and Erin Entrada Kelly, star athlete Thea must face her worst fears when two mischievous duwendes, Filipino goblins, threaten to wreak havoc on her life—and destroy her town. 
    Thea gets a chance to begin anew at Coastview Academy. There, she’s a star athlete, someone with friends and popularity.  
    But disaster strikes at Junior Stunt Warrior summer camp with her new friends: Her extremely uncool former best friend, Evan, shows up too, and she discovers that stunt class is the one activity she’s not good at. Actually, it’s something she’s terrified of. It all reminds Thea of the shy, invisible version of herself she’s determined to leave behind.  
    Then, in the midst of building a practice obstacle course, Thea wrecks a tree that a pair of grumpy duwendes—Filipino goblins—call home. She’s shocked that not only are duwendes real, but the two in her backyard want revenge.  
    Now Thea must team up with friends new and old to fend off the duwendes before they destroy her entire neighborhood. But can she pull it off while saving her cool-girl image, too?
