  Bestselling author Lisa Greenwald's charming middle grade novel with summertime fun, crushes, and babysitting—and a dash of magic—is a sequel perfect for fans of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and That's So Raven. 
  Is the magic really back? 
  When Mille, Nora, and Bea found fortune tellers popping up in unexpected places—with eerily accurate fortunes—they reunited as best friends. Now that they're back to being besties, they're excited to spend the summer together outside the city. Recruited into babysitting eight-year-old triplets and staying with Millie's family, the girls are hoping this will be their own private summer camp, one where they're in charge, away from annoying siblings and toxic frenemies. 
  But nothing perfect can last. When everything from homesickness and boy craziness to real estate developers threaten their summer, Millie, Nora, and Bea start stumbling upon fortune tellers in the strangest places. And once again it feels like these fortune tellers are speaking to them: Sometimes in life you just have to jump in. Speak your mind and stand up for what you believe in! You are here for a reason. If they speak up, can Millie, Nora, and Bea really save the summer—and the community—before it's too late?

  There is the whole world, and in it, there's a city, and in that city, there's a house, and in that house, there are two half-houses, and in one of those half-houses, there lives a pair of sisters named Stella and Marigold. Stella, who's seven, likes cats and axolotls and second grade. But most of all, she likes Marigold. Marigold, who's four, likes gibbons and red paint and the plumber. But most of all, she likes Stella.  
   
  Stella and Marigold do all the regular things—like going to school, playing with their friends, sometimes going to the zoo, and sometimes getting sick—but even the most regular things have a secret side. There's a secret that involves a blanket.  
   
  And another one about wolves, a terrible storm, and two brave children. That's a very exciting secret, and no one knows about it except Stella and Marigold. And—if you read this book—you!
