This rollicking Kentucky tale, full of strange events and characters, is as peculiar as it is wonderful. Newly thirteen, Magpie has to leave her family's mountain to return her brother's missing foot, save the moon from goblins, and end an age-old feud. Keehn's heroine is unique, and readers will root for her on her odd quest.
