An enchanting tale of a girl who dreams of a home on the stage but finds refuge in a dragon's lair. Newbery Honor and New York Times bestselling author Gail Carson Levine delivers an engaging story of a spirited leading lady cast in the role of a lifetime! Newly arrived in the town of Two Castles, twelve-year-old Elodie wants nothing more than to become an apprentice to a theater troupe. However, the troupe turns her away. The only one who offers to take her in is the brilliant dragon Meenore, who sells fire-roasted bread and cheese skewers and moonlights as a detective. Elodie and Meenore's first case together concerns the town's shape-shifting ogre, Count Jonty Um, who is in grave danger as someone wants him dead. Elodie disguises herself as a lowly kitchen maid in Count Jonty Um's castle to uncover the villain. Everyone is a suspect—from the handsome cat trainer Master Thiel to kindly Goodwife Celeste—and even Elodie finds herself under suspicion. Will she be able to identify the culprit before it's too late? Fans of Ella Enchanted and Fairest will delight in this rich fantasy about a remarkable heroine who finds unexpected friendship and learns that goodness and evil can come in many forms. Kirkus Reviews praised the story as "a thoroughly delicious romp," highlighting its unpredictable plot, relatable characters, subtle humor, and well-paced action. Extras are included in the paperback edition.

Eleven-year-old Danny's parents are storm chasers - which sounds fun and exciting, and it is, so long as you aren't the son who has to wait behind at home. And one night, after a particularly fierce storm, Danny's parents don't come back. Stranger still, the old sycamore tree in Danny's yard seems to have been struck by lightning, and when he picks up a fragment of wood from the tree's heart, he finds he can hear voices - including that of next door's rather uppity cat, Mitzy.
