- Baker & Taylor
After receiving a wooden puzzle box at a town festival, twelve-year-old Kallie figures out how to open the box and finds that her fate seems to be connected to a young bone carver from another time. - Baker & Taylor
A rationally minded 12-year-old who regards her town's magic-themed festival as a frivolous waste of time becomes the unexpected owner of a strange wooden puzzle box that enmeshes her in the alternate reality of a young bone carver. Simultaneous eBook. - McMillan Palgrave
Twelve-year-old Kallie despises nonsense. She believes thereâs a rational explanation for everything, despite the good-natured prodding of her Grandpa Jess, who takes her to frivolous wastes of time like their townâs local Festival of Fools.
There, Kallie meets a faceless man (must be some kind of mask) who gives her a strange wooden puzzle box (must be some kind of gimmick). Intrigued despite herself, Kallie sets to work on unlocking its secrets andâ¦lets something out. From here Kallieâs life begins to entangle with another world, a world where Liah, a young bone carver, journeys with her master to sell wares to a wicked Queen.
The sights, sounds, smells, and spells of Liahâs world are beginning to leak into Kallieâs, and if Kallie canât decipher the meaning of her own story, âthe endâ might be far from happy.
