Haley Harper Price faces a dreadful summer. No eleventh birthday party, developers circling her home, her impossible-to-please mother is more distant than ever, and now, her father is ill.

 

She’s losing everything she loves.

 

Then Haley discovers a bejeweled gargoyle in the cellar — and a hidden scroll pointing to a long-buried Romani legacy that may hold the power to save Grudge Hollow, win her mother’s favor — even cure her father. But to find it, Haley must jaunt to Iceland with her brother, Stevo, and her best friend, Lúile,

in search of a mysterious crystal candy box.

​

Danger, delight, and wild imagination await as tricksters trap them, caves sing, and geysers launch them high into magickal realms. And when a vengeful warlock steals the box and retreats to his underground laboratory, their only hope lies with the Throwaways — a band of strange, discarded hybrimorphs

who know the warlock’s deadly labyrinth better than anyone.

 

Perfect for fans of Fablehaven, Nevermoor, and Serafina and the Black Cloak, The Candy Box is

a fast-paced middle grade fantasy filled with Nordic folklore, spooky riddles,

enchanted objects, unforgettable creatures, family secrets, and heart.

 

An artfully crafted book featuring premium cover art,

full-page plates, and an intricate illustration
