Zahler, Diane

The Marvelwood Magicians

(4) 4-6 Eleven-year-old Mattie (who can read minds by touching another person) and her magical mixed-race traveling family join Master Morogh's Circus of Wonders. They soon discover that the sinister ringmaster has the ability to steal talents. Despite some moralizing, the story features eerie suspense and a pleasingly diverse cast of kind and helpful circus characters that behave like family.
