The Mossheart's Promise

From New York Times bestselling YA author Rebecca Mix comes this breathtaking middle grade fantasy debut about a young fairy who has always lived in her heroic grandmother''s shadow, but now must step up and embark on a quest to save her mother from the ever-creeping mold overtaking their world. Perfect for readers who loved Brandon Mull''s Fablehaven, The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau , and Endling: The Last by Katherine Applegate . The mold takes all. Twelve-year-old fairy Canary Mossheart knows this better than most. A few years ago, the mold took her papa, and even her famous, former-chosen-one Gran never found a cure. So when Ary''s beloved mama falls ill, Ary decides it''s taken enough. Armed with only a bucket and a prayer, she sneaks out to find a magical, underground lake whose healing waters are straight out of Gran''s adventures. But when Ary gets there, the lake''s bone dry, and instead of healing waters, she finds a terrifying secret: Her entire world is actually trapped inside a giant terrarium--one they were meant to leave centuries ago. Worse, Gran knew and hid the truth , dooming Ary and her generation to a dying, rotting world. Now, allied with only her doomsday-obsessed frenemy, a timid pill bug, and a particularly grumpy newt, Ary has one week to unravel the clues and find a way out of the terrarium--or they''ll be trapped for good. .
