Description

Twelve-year-old Bone possesses a Gift that allows her to see the stories in everyday objects in this supernatural historical mystery.

The first title in a series -- now in paperback! In southern Virginia coal-mining town in 1942, Bone Phillips has just reached the age when most members of her family discover their Gift.

Bone has a Gift that disturbs her; she can sense stories when she touches an object that was important to someone.

She sees both sad and happy--the death of a deer in an arrowhead, the pain of a beating in a baseball cap, and the sense of joy in a fiddle.

There are also stories woven into her dead mama's butter--yellow sweater--stories Bone yearns for and fears.

When Bone receives a note that says her mama's Gift is what killed her, Bone tries to uncover the truth.

Could Bone's Gift do the same? Here is a beautifully resonant coming-of-age tale about learning to trust the power of your own story.
