BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SOME
12yo Zoey and her mother have been traveling the country for eight years, since her father died, watching her mom, The Upcycle Magician, create sculptures from recycled pieces. Zoey has contrived a can’t-pass-it-up job for Mom, which takes them back to her Dad’s hometown, to the grandmother she doesn’t remember. 12yo Teddy meanwhile, is desperate to save her great grandparents’ Fossil Garden, a neglected sculpture garden. Both girls are looking for belonging and closure and they need each other.
The magic in the title is not really literal, though there is a slight touch of wonder. Teddy and Zoey are a good support for each other.
