Enter a spellbinding world in this soaring magical adventure, perfect for fans of Nevermoor, A Pinch of Magic and Rooftoppers.

Cordelia comes from a long line of magical milliners, who weave enchantment into every hat. In Cordelia's world, Making—crafting items such as hats, boots, and gloves from magical ingredients—is a rare and ancient skill, and only a few special Maker families remain.

When Cordelia's father and his ship, the Jolly Bonnet, are lost at sea during a mission to collect hat ingredients, Cordelia is determined to find him. But Uncle Tiberius and Aunt Ariadne have no time to help the littlest Hatmaker, for an ancient rivalry between the Maker families is threatening to surface. Worse, someone seems to be using Maker magic to start a war. It's up to Cordelia to find out who, and why...

Featuring gorgeous black-and-white illustrations throughout by Paola Escobar.
