Pennies
The Coraline vibe is strong in this taut yet flawed horror fantasy for stoic middle schoolers. Despite those flaws, recommended where girl-power horror sells.
PREMIUM
A Method for Magic and Misfortune
An appealing male protagonist facing tough choices makes this a compelling selection for most libraries.
PREMIUM
The Garden Just Beyond
An intriguing premise and solid characters can sell this story despite some plotting problems.

The Song of Orphan’s Garden
A carefully crafted fantasy adventure set in poetry, its steeper lead-in makes it less approachable than Megan Freeman’s Alone. Purchase for larger fantasy collections.
PREMIUM
Splinter & Ash
Encourage readers to push through early chapters for a character-driven fantasy series opener with tons of adventure. Recommended for most collections, especially those serving fans of Jennifer Nielsen or Kate O’Hearn.
PREMIUM
Sleeping Spells and Dragon Scales
A powerful presentation about courage in the face of childhood autoimmune disorders is juxtaposed with fantasy elements that fail to develop. Purchase where handselling as a contemporary title can overcome mixed marketing.
Between Monsters and Marvels
Hand sell this to its delighted readers—children who like Fantastic Beasts and animal rescue stories.
PREMIUM
The Song of the Swan
Sutton’s prose is fluid and readable—certainly young balletomanes and fans of fairy-tale retellings will overlook the stumbles. Suitable for larger fantasy collections.
PREMIUM
The Very Dangerous Sisters of Indigo McCloud
This Irish import will please children who want an over-the-top bully book jam-packed with adventure. This novel is wacky, awesome, and terrifying. It hits the right balance of ridiculous and real, but a sibling trying to kill a sibling is still intense and may be a specific fit for prepared readers.
