(3) 4-6 When a donor heart becomes available for her younger brother, Alice must stay with her stern grandmother, Nell, in the English countryside. There she meets a mysterious girl who insists there are fairies in the woods--woods Nell is determined to cut down. Interspersing WWI-era letters between a brother and sister with Alice's present-day voice, Carroll weaves a powerful magical-realism tale of hope and healing.
