Madelyn doesn’t quite fit in her small town but would never let her father know how much it hurts. Life in their lopsided old farmhouse overflows with great books, cozy meals, and grand adventures. What more could she ask for? After all, it’s not her father’s fault that Madelyn doesn’t have a mother.
But when a mysterious new friend appears in the woods and invites her down a forbidden trail and into a new world, Madelyn realizes that there’s far more to life than she ever allowed herself to realize. This new world, Asterwood, is wider, wilder, and more magical than she could ever imagine. And somehow, its people know who she is—and desperately need her help.
Accompanied by new friends and her calico cat, Dots, Madelyn embarks on a quest across a strange and sprawling forest world whose secrets just might help her save her own.
