“I love the way Alice Hoffman creates the most ordinary people and then turns their lives
magical. . . . is like reentering a wonderful dream that you vaguely remember.
” —Lois Lowry, two-time Newbery Medal–winning author of The Giver


In her first novel for middle-grade readers , bestselling author Alice Hoffman tells a
bewitching story of love and friendship that is truly magical.

Twig lives in Sidwell, where people whisper that fairy tales are real. After all, her town
is rumored to hide a monster. And two hundred years ago, a witch placed a curse on Twig’s
family that was meant to last forever. But this summer, everything will change when the
red moon rises. It’s time to break the spell.

What Other Authors Are Saying
"I loved Nightbird. Such a clever mix of fantasy and reality; the fantasy is so
persuasively meshed with the story that the reader accepts everything. Alice Hoffman
enters brilliantly into the twelve-year-old mind and winds her account of a disordered
family into the twists and turns of an elegantly crafted narrative in which past and
present unite to solve a magically intriguing problem of witches, feathers and owls." —
Penelope Lively, winner of the Carnegie Medal and the Booker Prize



Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—A sweet, if somewhat uneven middle grade tale by beloved adult author Hoffman.
Twig is the daughter of the best baker in the town of Sidwell, NY. But Twig has a secret—
the town doesn't know that she has an older brother, James, hidden away because of his
large black wings, a result of the curse on the men in their family. James's clandestine
nighttime jaunts around Sidwell have led fractious locals to talk of hunting down "the
monster" in their midst. When a new family moves into the cottage that belonged to the
witch who cursed Twig's ancestor, events are set in motion that will change all of their
lives forever. Hoffman juggles multiple themes: an environmental thread, with a focus on
the rare owls in the woods around Twig's home; a broken family thread (Twig hasn't seen or
heard from her father since she was a toddler); a friendship tale of outsiders finding
each other; along with bits of romance, curses, and magic. A clever narrator, beautiful
imagery, and the quirky cast of secondary characters who populate the oddball town are the
bright spots in this mix of fantasy and mystery. Unfortunately, the climax ties every plot
line together neatly, and the overly pat ending undercuts an otherwise sophisticated
narrative. Still, the spunky protagonist, copious descriptions of mouth-watering baked
goods, and terrific cover art guarantee this magical story will find an audience.—
Elisabeth Gattullo Marrocolla, Darien Library, CT
