About The Book

From Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant comes the sweet and resonant follow-up to the critically acclaimed Rosetown, continuing the story of ten-year-old Flora Smallwood’s life in quiet Rosetown, Indiana.

It’s August in Rosetown, Indiana.

Ten-year-old Flora is having a calm and busy summer filled with old friends and new projects, dear pets, and, of course, many hours at her favorite place: Wings and a Chair Used Books. It is her constant and her comfort.

But change may be ahead for Wings and a Chair, and Flora is uneasy about what it will bring.
