Summary:
"To everyone else, the Magical Land of Gumbling is something out of fairy tales. But to Nell Starkeeper, it’ s just home. Sure, the town community center might be a castle, her dads run a star farm, and her best friend Myra is a fairy, but Nell is much more interested in finding out if she’ ll get the seventh grade apprenticeship of her dreams with world-famous artist Wiz Bravo. She’ s pretty sure her entire life has been RUINED when she’ s instead matched with boring old Mrs. Birdneck in the town archives. And of course her perfect rival Leabelle gets to work with Wiz, and mean girl Viola won’ t let Nell forget it. Meanwhile, suddenly Myra seems more into hanging out with Leabelle and saving the town from some weird strangers who keep talking about turning Gumbling into a fancy resort than being friends with Nell anymore. Can Nell find a way to save everything that makes her world magical, while figuring out where she belongs in it? " -- Publisher's website.
