Asterwood

內容簡介

內容簡介 Family secrets, friendship, and magic burst from the seams of this thrilling fantasy adventure that follows a ten-year-old girl as she discovers a new world behind her home in desperate need of her help and within it, her own troubling family legacy. Madelyn has always been satisfied with her life of cozy meals, great books, and adventures with her father in the woods behind their farmhouse. But when a mysterious child appears and invites her down a forbidden trail and into a new world, Madelyn realizes that there's far more to life than she ever allowed herself to realize. This new world, Asterwood, is wider, wilder, and more magical than she could ever imagine. And somehow, it's people know who she is--and desperately need her help. Accompanied by new friends--one ​who can speak the language of the trees and one with a mind as sharp as her daggers--and her calico cat, Dots, Madelyn embarks on an epic quest across a strange and sprawling forest world whose secrets just might help her save her own.​
