Welcome back to Willow Falls, where anything is possible and nothing is as it seems!

It doesn't take long for Tara Brennan to realize that breaking into school to steal a goat is not a good idea. As punishment for her crimes, Tara's parents send her to the sleepy town of Willow Falls to stay with relatives she hardly knows, including her strange younger cousin Emily. Tara quickly learns that Emily isn't even remotely the strangest person in town. There's a boy who sings at the bottom of an empty pool, two best friends who use blackboards to communicate, and a girl who may or may not be dating the world's hottest teen movie star.Due to another lapse in judgment, Tara finds herself beholden to perhaps the strangest person of all: Angelina D'Angelo. If Tara can't collect thirteen mysterious objects for the old woman in time for her thirteenth birthday, the consequences will be REALLY BAD. With a big dose of birthday magic, Tara's adventures take her and her new friends to places they never thought they'd find, some in the real world, and a lot deep inside themselves.

      Tara has been banished (her word) to her aunt and uncle's small town, Willow Falls, for the summer. While her parents are away on a research trip, she's determined to keep to her loner ways despite the friendliness of the locals. Kathleen McInerney effectively portrays the dynamics of the tween characters who make up this story. Her Australian accent is spot-on, and she switches from children to adult characters flawlessly. There's magic, mystery, and a bit of mayhem in Willow Falls--especially around thirteenth birthdays. And Tara has one coming up. The story's madcap antics are pleasantly grounded by McInerney's youthful voice. G.D. (c) AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine
