Neil and Liz measure their lives by the regularity of the seasons, until one year when autumn doesn't arrive and all weather breaks loose.
Neil and Liz Maloney have a secret: Their father is the keeper of the Weatherbox, a magical phone booth that rings four times a year, signaling the changing of the seasons. But this summer when the family gathers to send off the season, the phone doesn't ring and autumn does not arrive. Instead a mysterious tourist of magic shows up at their doorstep, along with two nonsensical hags and one cat-shaped bog beast. The only one not taken by surprise is their neighbor Mrs. Fitzgerald, who seems to be able to make the elements of weather itself do her bidding.
Now it's up to Neil and Liz to discover the source of Mrs. Fitzgerald's power and restore order to the climate.
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—Neil and Liz Maloney's father is a very important person, even though no one knows it: He is the Weatherman himself, one of the four caretakers of the world, honoring the ancient agreement between humanity and the seasons. This also means that he is the keeper of the Weatherbox, a magical phone booth that rings four times a year when the seasons change. But this year when it is time for summer to end and autumn to arrive, the phone does not ring. Added to the mix are a mysterious tourist, two hags, and a bog beast that looks like a cat. Most mysterious of all is their neighbor Mrs. Fitzgerald, who does not seem the least bit surprised by any of it. When Liz senses something under the water, and Neil and the Tourist go to enlist the Shieldsmen's help, chaos ensues. Although the switching of Neil and Liz's voices can be jarring, and there is a lot of information packed in that will inform and entertain readers. Set in modern-day Ireland, this fantasy is a delightfully rambunctious tale full of unique characters and high energy. The resolution is clever and unexpected. VERDICT A solid general purchase for fans of Patricia C. Wrede's The Thirteenth Child (Scholastic, 2009) and Ingrid Law's "Savvy" series (Penguin).—Deanna McDaniel, Genoa Middle School, OH
Review
An unusually varied cast ranging from eldritch magical figures to seemingly ordinary mortals with surprising depths and even, shades of Terry Pratchett. A boisterous, gusty romp and an exhilarating debut. (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
A delightfully rambunctious tale full of unique characters and high energy. (School Library Journal)
