(2) 4-6 In Linnet's village, girls mustn't touch the lourka, a musical instrument, before they're twelve. Linny, who's built one for herself, expects to die for her transgression. Instead, friend Sayra fades into the unreachable Away. Searching for a cure, Linny leaves her magic land for countries where mathematics, science, and craft contend against one another. Nesbet's fable explores science, logic, and imagination through eventfulness and visual richness.
