โฆ Synopsis
A spooky and adventurous debut illustrated fantasy novel about a girl made of dust and bone and imagination who seeks the truth about the magic that brought her to life.
**"This magical storyโand the brave girl in its pagesโwill haunt you in the best way." โNatalie Lloyd, New York Times bestselling author of Over the Moon __ โRemember, my dear, you do not really and truly exist.โ Irrรฉelle fears sheโs not quite real . Only the finest magical thread tethers her to lifeโand to Miss Vesper. But for all her efforts to please her cruel creator, the thread is unraveling. Irrรฉelle is forgetful as she gathers bone dust. She is slow returning from the dark passages beneath the cemetery. Worst of all, she is unmindful of her crooked bones. When Irrรฉelle makes one final, unforgivable mistake by destroying a frightful creature just brought to life, Miss Vesper threatens to imagine her away once and for all. Defying her creator for the very first time, Irrรฉelle flees to the underside of the graveyard and embarks on an adventure to unearth the mysterious magic that breathes bones to life, even if it means she will return to dust and be no more. Debut author Heather Kassner's The Bone Garden is a gorgeously written story--illustrated by Matt Saunders--humming with magic, mystery, and dark imaginings. Perfect for fans of Holly Black, Jonathan Auxier, and Katherine Arden. "[Evokes] the dreamy tone and themes of Neil Gaimanโs Coraline and The Graveyard Book . . . an impressive new fairy tale that will appeal to fans of Lisa Graffโs subtly magical stories." โ Booklist **
