(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Erin McGuire. Eleven-year-old Lark is empathic and imaginative; her twin Iris is assertive and practical. When they are assigned to separate fifth-grade classrooms, both girls are miserable. Meanwhile, objects begin disappearing all over town after a strange antique store appears, run by a man obsessed with finding his lost sister. The book is packed with thought-provoking material, exploring such themes as girls' power, healthy versus unhealthy relationships--and the cost of magic.
