The Amber Spin

By Kate Cassia

A breathtaking, magical journey about finding courage when the seasons change.

For eleven-year-old Maya, the end of summer feels like a door slamming shut. The air turns sharp, the colors shift, and the world demands that she move forward. But Maya wants everything to stay exactly the same. When she spots a peculiar, glowing amber leaf that refuses to touch the ground-spinning like a tiny, fallen star-she discovers that letting go might not mean losing everything. It might just mean learning a new way to fly.

Perfect for fans of Kate DiCamillo and Kwame Alexander, The Amber Spin is a modern fairy tale wrapped in poetry.
