Windswept [electronic resource]. Margi Preus.
From Newbery Honorâ??winner Margi Preus, a gripping middle-grade fantasy about a girl who must save the children of her world from being â??windswept" In Tagâ??s world, children are disappearing. â??Youngersâ? who venture Outside are windsweptâ??vanishing in the swirling snowâ??Tagâ??s sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of songs, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned textsâ??including a book of fairytales. An unlikely crew of Youngers join forcesâ??Boots, who can climb anything, Ant, who will eat anything, Ren, who will say anything, and Tag, who doesnâ??t appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairytales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept â??thatâ??s impossible,â? they set off to rescue their windswept siblings in this spellbinding fantasy from Newbery Honor winner Margi Preus.
