INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Murray, Martine

Molly & Pim and the Millions of Stars

(3) 4-6 Molly envies her best friend, whose mom runs a traditional household. Her own mother, a fey vegetarian, gathers plants to make potions. When her mother accidentally turns herself into a tree, devastated Molly wants her old mom back. With the help of Pim, another outsider at school, she gets just that. Accompanied by Murray's delicate black-and-white spot art, this middle-grade fantasy is charming, whimsical, and satisfying.
