Figgs & Phantoms | Ellen Raskin
2 posts | 8 read | 1 to read
From the Newbery Award-winning author of THE WESTING GAME, more clever riddles and wordplay, clues to be found, and mysteries to be solved! A Newbery Honor book The Amazing Dancing Figgs! While Mona hates all the attention her eccentric relatives bring to her in town, there is one Figg family member she likes: her Uncle Florence, the book dealer. But Uncle Florence keeps hinting that he's going to find his way to Capri, the Figg family heaven. And that means leaving Mona behind. Can Mona find Capri before it's too late, or will she learn that things are seldom what they seem when books are involved?

The best way I can think to describe this book is if melancholy was to take the form of a whimsical children's book this would be it.

RadicalReader @itsabbe is this your cursive? It is beautiful 7y
itsabbe @RadicalReader The cursive was straight out of the book. I wish my handwriting looked like that! 7y
RadicalReader @itsabbe cursive is pretty sad schools don't teach it anymore. Looking forward to seeing if my library books are available yet to pick up. Been eagerly waiting 7y
