Spring 2019 Kids Indie Next List

“Iris has always defined herself by how she’s different from her twin sister, Lark. Lark is bursting with imagination, and Iris is the one who anchors her sister to the real world. But when the two girls are assigned different teachers for the first time, Iris is lost — what’s an anchor without the thing it anchors? How can she protect her sister if people won’t let them stay together? In a world that seems to be falling to pieces, Iris fights to figure out who she wants to be and who she can count on to fight at her side. This is the kind of book you’ll want to hug when you’re done reading it.”
