  After living in the public library for the last eleven years, Essie must learn to adapt to a world that’s not as perfect as the stories she’s grown up with in this heartfelt middle grade novel from Newbery Honor author Polly Horvath. 
    
  Essie has grown up in the public library, raised in secret by the four librarians who found her abandoned as a baby in the children’s department. With four mothers and miles of books to read, Essie has always been very happy living there.   
    
  But now that she is eleven, Essie longs for a little more freedom … and maybe a friend her own age. She seems to get her wish when her moms let her go by herself to the mall. On her second trip there, she meets G.E., a mysterious boy who looks so much like her she can’t help but think they may be twins. Maybe he was raised by four dads in the appliance section of the department store. Maybe his story is intertwined with hers, and their happy ending is as one big family. But as she gets to know G.E. better, she learns that nothing is as simple as it seems in her stories—not even her own past. 
    
  With her signature warmth and offbeat humor, Newbery Honor author Polly Horvath invites book lovers to sit back in their own library nooks and check out a whimsical adventure perfect for readers trying to find their place in the world. 
    
  “Fast paced, richly imaginative, and written with abundant humor. An engaging choice for reading aloud.”—Booklist

  THE MOONLIGHT MYSTERY CLUB ARE ALL SET FOR ANOTHER MAGICAL ADVENTURE! 
   
  Pandora is an impulsive teen witch with funky pink-and-black bangs and a wicked sense of humor. She makes up exactly one quarter of the Moonlight Mystery Club, alongside naive Scarlett, independent Foxglove, and perfectionistic Maya. 
   
  Under the guidance of their mentor, Aunt Sandy, the members of the club are earning their witchcraft badges. They use their magic to help other people through secret acts of kindness, and are working on solving the unexplained mysteries of their home, Moonlight Valley. 
   
  In this adventure ... 
   
  Pandora is working toward earning her performance badge, which (like many junior witchcraft badges) has a component of doing a good deed. She is going to perform in a witch's retirement home to cheer the older people up. However, she is nervous about her singing ability ... so she makes a potion to improve her voice. 
   
  The only problem is that it's too good! When other kids at school hear her rehearsing, they form a crazed fan club and start chasing her about. Now she gets a taste of what it might be like to be a world-famous celebrity! 
   
  This is the second book in the Moonlight Magic Club series, a warm-hearted and empowering fantasy series following four witchy friends and their outrageous adventures. Perfect for children aged 7+.
