From the New York Times bestselling author of The Lies Among Us comes a magical tale about mothers and daughters, choices and consequences, and the real meaning of home when every place feels like a cage. Ten months. That's the longest Elisa has stayed anyplace, constantly propelled by her fear that if she puts down roots, a family curse will turn her into a tree. But she's grown tired of flitting from town to town and in and out of relationships. When she discovers a small town in Massachusetts where mysterious forces make it impossible for the residents to leave, she hopes she can change her fate. As Elisa learns about the town's history, she understands more about the women in her family, who seem doomed to never get what they want. Now she believes she's stuck, too--is that a patch of bark on her arm? But her neighbor's collection of pet birds sings secrets that Elisa can almost understand--secrets she must unravel in order to be truly alive.

A counting game for sneaky squirrels! Jump, jump, jump from one mushroom to the next! Use your counting skills to jump your squirrels along the path to reach their nesting tree. But watch out for the sneaky squirrels on the other team who will try to make you fly! Squirrel Jump from Petit Collage combines counting and problem-solving skills with a sweet woodland theme to create a game that kids can learn from and the whole family will enjoy. Move squirrels along the mushroom path by the number of jumps shown on their sides. If you land on a mushroom that is already occupied by the other team’s squirrel, then you can take their spot and send them flying back to the start! Perfect for 2 players—or more if you play in teams—and ages 4 and up, this game includes 8 wooden squirrel counters, 6 wooden mushroom stands, 6 flight tokens, 2 wooden nesting tree bases, and English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish instructions. AIM OF THE GAME: Use your counting skills to jump your squirrels along the path to reach their nesting tree. The first player to land all their squirrels in their nesting tree wins! HOW TO PLAY : Decide who will play as red squirrels and who will play as orange squirrels. The youngest player goes first, selecting a squirrel and jumping along the mushroom path. With each turn, the squirrel must move the number of jumps shown on its side until it reaches its nesting tree. You can have as many squirrels as you like on the path at any one time and jump over other squirrels as you move. If you land on a mushroom that is already occupied by the other team’s squirrel, then you can either share the spot or use a flight token to send them flying back to the start to begin their journey again. The first player to land all their squirrels in their nesting tree wins the game! WHO IT'S FOR : Perfect for kids ages 4–8 and for families to play together! WHAT'S INSIDE: 8 wooden squirrel counters, 6 wooden mushroom stands, 6 flight tokens, 2 wooden nesting tree bases, and English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, and Spanish instructions.
