The Water Castle

(3) 4-6 Contemporary kids Ephraim, Mallory, and Will reluctantly work together to investigate local Fountain of Youth lore. In 1908, Nora acts as apprentice to an eccentric scientist.

Blakemore paces her revelations well and raises fascinating questions about the possibilities of science.
