"The Next Full Moon" is as magical as a moonbeam on a mid-summer's eve. When you've finished this enchanting story, you'll close your eyes and fly.
--Kathi Appelt, author of THE UNDERNEATH and KEEPER
Description
Ava is about to turn 12. She is also about to discover an extraordinary secret about her long-lost mother—and herself.
This thoroughly compelling, gorgeously told tale begins as the weather turns warm enough to swim in the local lake, Ava is looking forward to a lazy summer, and her crush, Jeff, is most definitely taking notice of her. Everything is going beautifully for Ava. . . until she starts to grow feathers. Is she some kind of freak? Or something truly special?
