A SPELLBINDER book launch and giveaway!

April 29, 2013

Our very own Spellbinder Book Launch - just in time for Spring and Summer Reading!   SPELLBINDER author, Kimberley Griffiths Little's new book, WHEN THE BUTTERFLIES CAME, is out from Scholastic this month! Just in time for planting your very own summer butterfly gardens. Everybody thinks Tara Doucet has the perfect life. But Tara's life is anything but perfect: Her dear Grammy Claire has just passed away, her mom is depressed and distant, and she and her sister, Riley, can't agree on anything. But when mysterious and dazzling butterflies begin to follow her around after Grammy Claire's funeral, Tara knows in her heart that her grandmother has left her one final mystery to solve. Tara finds a stack of keys and detailed letters from Grammy Claire. Note by note, Tara learns unexpected truths about her grandmother's life. As the letters grow more ominous and the clues harder to decipher, Tara realizes that the secrets she must uncover could lead to grave danger. And when Tara and Riley are swept away to the beautiful islands of Chuuk to hear their grandmother's will, Tara discovers the most shocking truth of all, one that will change her life forever. Kimberley Griffiths Little weaves a magical, breathtaking mystery. Of course, there are gorgeous, magical purple butterflies in the story. In fact, there are many *unusual* species Tara's Grammy Claire is researching in her secret laboratory. . . The book takes place in the swamps and bayous of Louisiana. And on an island in Micronesia in the South Pacific. Tara must solve a series of clues inside a stack of mysterious letters with keys . . . and save her Grammy Claire's butterflies even as she finds herself and her sister, Riley, in grave danger. The stunning book trailer for WHEN THE BUTTERFLIES CAME will be in a post later this week. Final music edits were delayed due to unforeseen events so stay tuned for a marvelous book trailer.
