Description

From critically acclaimed author Jessica Lawson comes a "wonderfully enchanting adventure" (Booklist) about an orphaned twelve-year-old girl who is called upon to save her queendom when she finds a tiny wizard in her pocket. Life's never been kind to twelve-year-old Stub. Orphaned and left in the care of the cruel Matron Tratte, Stub's learned that the best way to keep the peace is to do as she's told. No matter that she's bullied and that her only friend is her pet chicken, Peck, Stub's accepted the fact that her life just isn't made for adventure. Then she finds a tiny wizard in her pocket. Orlen, the royal wizard to Maradon's queen, is magically bound to Stub. And it's up to her to ferry Orlen back to Maradon Cross, the country's capital, or else the delicate peace of the queendom will crumble under the power of an evil wizard queen. Suddenly Stub's unexciting life is chock-full of adventure. But how can one orphan girl possibly save the entire queendom?
