(2) 4-6 Thirteen-year-old narrator Mellie Turpin's family has for centuries been pledged to protect the Parvi Pennati ("small persons with wings") in exchange for a magic moonstone ring. Now the Parvi need the ring back--but the Turpins don't know where it is. Mellie has a wry, snarky voice that will draw readers in and keep them invested in the escalating events.
