“Cynthia Rylant is a fabulous writer. She always seems to hit on an important aspect of a child’s life. In this book, it is books and the valuable piece they play in these introverted children’s loves. Something not always discussed in children’s books. The books help them get through the summer and possible changes on the horizon.”
— Mollie • HearthFire Books and Treats
From Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant comes the sweet and resonant follow-up to the critically acclaimed Rosetown, continuing the story of ten-year-old Flora Smallwood’s life in quiet Rosetown, Indiana.
It’s August in Rosetown, Indiana.
Ten-year-old Flora is having a calm and busy summer filled with old friends and new projects, dear pets, and, of course, many hours at her favorite place: Wings and a Chair Used Books. It is her constant and her comfort.
But change may be ahead for Wings and a Chair, and Flora is uneasy about what it will bring.
Cynthia Rylant is the author of more than 100 books for young people, including the beloved Henry and Mudge, Annie and Snowball, Brownie & Pearl, Motor Mouse, and Mr. Putter & Tabby series. Her novel Missing May received the Newbery Medal. She lives in Portland, Oregon.
