Description

The Girl of Ink & Stars by Kiran Millwood Hargrave is a beautifully written tale of friendship, discovery, and the power of myth and magic. On the island of Joya, the air is said to be filled with the sweet songs of songbirds, but the harsh reality is that the islanders are forbidden to travel beyond the forest that separates them from the rest of the island. For Isabella, the legends of her island home have always seemed like more than just stories, and when a series of mysterious events shakes the community, she sets out to uncover the truth. As Isabella ventures into the forest with a group of explorers, dark secrets begin to surface, and the legends she has listened to all her life start to show signs of coming to life. This richly told story draws on the cultural folklore of the Canary Islands, weaving a tale of a girl's quest to map her own place in a world that has been shaped by myth and legend.
