The Stars of Whistling Ridge

By Cindy Baldwin

Book Overview

This enchanting story about magic, family, and the meaning of
home from the award-winning author of Where the Watermelons Grow
is perfect for fans of Corey Ann Haydu and Natalie Lloyd.

Ivy Mae Bloom is almost thirteen years old, her name is almost
a complete sentence, and her family's
RV is almost a home. That's
one too many "almosts" for Ivy. She desperately wants a place to put down roots,
but it's her mama's job as a fallen star to tend the magic underpinning the
world--a job that's kept Ivy's family living on the road since before Ivy was
born.
After Ivy steals Mama's entire supply of wish jars in the hopes
of finding a place to call home, disaster strands her family in Whistling
Ridge, North Carolina, with Mama's star sisters. Ivy falls for Whistling Ridge
immediately--she just needs to convince her parents to stay.

But something is draining the magic from the town, and the star
sisters can't pinpoint it. Ivy and her new friends find a clue in Whistling
Ridge's history that might explain the mysterious threat...but if Whistling
Ridge's
magic is fixed, Mama will need to move on. Ivy is faced with an impossible
decision: How can she help the star sisters lift the curse if it means losing
her best chance at a forever home?
