For fans of Barbara O'Connor, this heartfelt middle grade with a hint of magic follows two girls who discover the joys of baking, friendship, and prehistoric fossils in a small town.
Welcome to Maravel, a place you'll want to know by heart.
Zoe longs to one day put down roots. Since her dad's death, twelve-year-old Zoe September has drifted from place to place with her artist mother, the Up-cycle Magician. Then a new art project for her mum brings them to Maravel, Florida—her dad's hometown. In Maravel, she discovers a delicious, enchanting secret among the sweet brews of her grandmother's tea shop. But how will Zoe ever leave when her mum wants to get back on the road?
Teddy dreams of the day she can save her past. Twelve-year-old Teddy Martin has a mission: restore her great-grandparents' legacy, Fossil Gardens, a theme park of artistic recreations of prehistoric animals. Desperate to rescue the last remaining sculptures, Teddy enlists the Up-cycle Magician's help before they disappear forever. But with sinkholes threatening to swallow the decaying fossils, is Teddy in over her head?
Never underestimate the magic of someday soon. Things bubble and steam between Zoe and Teddy when they team up. But in working together to save Fossil Gardens, the girls discover something even more special—the possibility of your deepest wishes coming true in unexpected ways and a friendship that feels like home.
