INTERMEDIATE FICTION
McKay, Hilary

Binny Bewitched

(1) 4-6 Illustrated by Tony Ross. McKay continues to display her extraordinary gifts (for language, nuance, humor; for capturing human nature and family dynamics) in this third book (Binny for Short; Binny in Secret). Binny finds a stack of twenty-pound notes and impulsively pockets the lot. It seems like an answer to her bankrupt family's prayers, but instead a miserable seven days follow. The whirlwind-paced plot folds in big ideas for readers to think about.
