An exciting new take on the bestselling Willow Falls series from middle-grade superstar Wendy Mass.
In 11 Birthdays, Finally, 13 Gifts, and The Last Present, we've seen the kids of Willow Falls in different magical situations. With Graceful, the tables are turned - this time it's a kid who's doing the magic.
Grace has powers to alter peoples' fates, and is guided by hints left behind by Angelica, the magician from the first books. It's supposed to take a few years for Grace's powers to return full force - but something's affecting the magic in the town of Willow Falls, and Grace needs to do something now!
Luckily, she's got the help of all her friends . . . if she can just keep them safe from their own choices and all the pizza her powers produce - which is much harder than she ever imagined.
Family, friendship, and everyday magic - nobody does it better than Wendy Mass!
