Synopsis:

    When Rini lands with a literal splash in the pond behind Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children, the last thing she expects to find is that her mother, Sumi, died years before Rini was even conceived. But Rini can’t let Reality get in the way of her quest – not when she has an entire world to save! (Much more common than one would suppose.) If she can't find a way to restore her mother, Rini will have more than a world to save: she will never have been born in the first place. And in a world without magic, she doesn’t have long before Reality notices her existence and washes her away. Good thing the student body is well-acquainted with quests...
   A tale of friendship, baking, and derring-do. Warning: May contain nuts.

Beneath the Sugar Sky, the third book in McGuire's Wayward Children series, returns to Eleanor West's Home for Wayward Children in a standalone contemporary fantasy for fans of all ages. At this magical boarding school, children who have experienced fantasy adventures are reintroduced to the "real" world.

Book Beginning:

  Children have always tumbled down rabbit holes, fallen through mirrors, been swept away by unseasonable flood or carried off by tornadoes.

 

 

Friday 56:

  That dubious honor belonged to Christopher, who was curled into a ball next to the door, shaking uncontrollably.
