A Sliver of Stardust

Zusatztext "With its unique twist (her roommate! for example! is a snooty Snow White)! Una's adventures should charm those who enjoy fairy-tale reboots! and the cliff-hanger ending could ensure demand for a sequel."

She grew up in Oregon and now lives in the Seattle area with her husband and three sons. Marissa is also the author of Storybound and Story's End . Klappentext From Marissa Burt, author of Storybound, comes a richly imagined middle grade fantasy. Full of magic and mystery, A Sliver of Stardust is the perfect adventure for fans of A Wrinkle in Time or The Emerald Atlas. Wren Matthews thought she'd outgrown nursery rhymes a long time ago.
