Summary

From the author of the award-winning book A Wizard's Guide To Defensive Baking . . .

Rosa Mandolini knows in her heart that her family are the greatest painters of magical illuminations in the city. But the eccentric Studio Mandolini has fallen on hard times and the future is no longer certain. While trying to help her family, Rosa discovers a strange magical box protected by a painted crow. But when she finds a way to open the box, she accidentally releases the Scarling, a vicious monster determined to destroy the Mandolini family at any cost.

With the aid of her former best friend and a painted crow named Payne, it's up to Rosa to stop the Scarling before it unmakes the magical paintings that keep the city running, and hopefully save her family in the process!

Poetically cute

T. Kingfisher’s writing speaks to me. The way she describes things and feelings is unmatched. Even in a middle-grade story. And her imagination never seizes to amaze me. She has this combination of deep observations, imagination and humor all wrapped in a well-paced story with loveable and relatable characters that just works perfectly. The narration matches the eerie yet cute (it is still a story for younger readers, thoroughly enjoyed by this adult, though) atmosphere and I’ll be sure listening to the story again.
