Longing for a family with lots of love and siblings, Theo, who lives in poverty with her irresponsible mother, is mysteriously "adopted" by the Kaldors, the family of her dreams, who begin to fade away one day, leaving behind a confused Theo.
Review: "Deftly weaves fantasy and reality together into a charming novel. . . . Intriguing from start to finish".
-- School Library Journal
"This is not a 'quiet' book. It is noisy with the most important kinds of struggle, because you and I face them every day: the quest to find our place in the world, to belong to a family and group of friends, to be loved." - Kenneth Oppel
