The Memory Garden (Ages 8–12)

Poppy Atherton sees things other people miss—patterns in tide pools, stories hidden in old photographs, and the buried history of a garden that her whole village wants to forget. When the eleven-year-old discovers that the overgrown plot behind the Cawsford library once belonged to Traveller families who were forced from their homes, she's determined to set the record straight. But powerful people want the past to stay buried, and speaking up might cost Poppy more than she's prepared to give.
