(2) YA Illustrated by Ana Juan. Twelve-year-old September, tired of her middle-class WWII-era existence in Omaha, seizes the opportunity to explore Fairyland. She loses her shadow and her heart, meets her own Death, and rides a wild velocipede. When September finally confronts the tyrannical Marquess, she learns some harsh truths. Readers will find the wonderfully bizarre world of Fairyland and September herself compelling.
