Keeper of the Lost Cities: Illustrated & Annotated Edition
Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit in, skipping multiple grades, and harboring a secret: she's a telepath. Feeling alone until she meets Fitz, a mysterious and adorable boy who is also a telepath, and he opens her eyes to a shocking truth that leaves her forced to figure out her true identity, and why she is the key to her brand-new world before the wrong person finds the answers first . . .
This illustrated and annotated edition of Keeper of the Lost Cities contains exclusive deleted scenes, margin notes from author Shannon Messenger that explains her writing choices, provides background details, and insights into her process.
“A slew of interesting and well-drawn characters, careful plotting, and just plain good storytelling will have readers racing through the pages.” -- School Library Journal
