Are you ready for Ivy Pocket? A darkly whimsical and wickedly funny tale of a twelve-year-old maid of no importance who finds herself at the very heart of a conspiracy involving mischief, ghosts, and murder. School Library Journal says, “Fans of . . . Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events will love Ivy Pocket’s zany adventures.” Featuring extensive black-and-white interior art by Barbara Cantini.
Ivy Pocket is a walking disaster, at every turn enraging and appalling the aristocrats she works for. But our protagonist doesn’t see herself that way at all. In fact, she’s convinced that she’s rather wonderful, perfectly charming, and extremely talented. When Ivy finds herself abandoned and penniless in Paris, she has no idea how she will get back to England. Fate intervenes when Ivy is called to the sickbed of a dying duchess and is charged with delivering a spectacular (and possibly cursed) diamond necklace to Matilda Butterfield on her twelfth birthday. From that moment on, Ivy Pocket is propelled towards her remarkable destiny in a surprising adventure full of intrigue, villains, mayhem, and misunderstandings. ALA Booklist calls Anyone but Ivy Pocket “A droll chapter book with a Victorian setting and a one-of-a-kind protagonist.”.
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—Twelve-year-old orphan maid Ivy Pocket is the unlikely (and deliberately unlikable) heroine embroiled in this quirky, supernatural mystery. The story begins when she is fired for submerging her employer's head in a bowl of fruit punch to cure her "brain fever." With only a single pound in her pocket, Ivy soon accepts a high-paying mission from a strange duchess—she must travel across the sea to deliver a necklace to a spoiled heiress. The necklace possesses magical powers and is highly sought after, putting Ivy through a series of madcap catastrophes. Her impulsivity and delusional hubris lead her to make one regrettable decision after the next. Ivy is superficial, judgmental, and rude; mature readers who are able to avoid taking her literally will appreciate the humor and Krisp's ironic tone. The Victorian English setting is conspicuously old-fashioned, but Krisp's sharp, fresh dialogue and the action-packed illustrations keep the story light and funny. VERDICT Fans of the irony, mild violence, and conspiracies found in Lemony Snickett's "A Series of Unfortunate Events" (HarperCollins) will love Ivy Pocket's zany adventures.—Anna Murphy, Berkeley Carroll School, Brooklyn, NY --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
Review
“Krisp’s sharp, fresh dialogue and the action-packed illustrations keep the story light and funny. Fans of . . . Lemony Snicket’s ‘A Series of Unfortunate Events’ will love Ivy Pocket’s zany adventures.”—School Library Journal (School Library Journal)
“[Readers] will enjoy the ride, transported by Ivy’s amusing narration and Cantini’s expressive, stylized drawings . . . A droll chapter book with a Victorian setting and a one-of-a-kind protagonist.” (ALA Booklist)
“Ivy is hilarious.” (Kirkus)
“There’s reward here in the period backdrop (Ivy begins in Paris, where her mistress disappears, and then returns to England) and in the Snickety self-awareness . . . A plucky orphan who’s too big for her britches, and . . . ghosts, visions, and other supernatural elements.” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books)

Are you ready for Ivy Pocket? The wickedly funny, completely unreliable maid of no importance returns—this time as a coffin maker’s daughter—in this action-packed sequel to Anyone but Ivy Pocket. School Library Journal says, “Fans of . . . Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events will love Ivy Pocket’s zany adventures.” Featuring extensive black-and-white interior art by Barbara Cantini throughout.
Everyone seems to want a piece of Ivy Pocket. Her adoptive parents keep trying to get her to clean the funeral home, even though Ivy’s certain she’s already the picture of a perfect daughter. A beautiful heiress named Estelle wants Ivy to uncover the dark truth behind her brother’s death. Her new friend, Miss Carnage, keeps asking Ivy the most curious questions (the poor, clueless dear). To top it all off, Ivy must protect the Clock Diamond from the evil Miss Always, who seems to be lurking around every corner! A fast-paced and hilarious follow-up to Anyone but Ivy Pocket, which Booklist praised as “a droll chapter book with a Victorian setting and a one-of-a-kind protagonist.” This is the second of three books about Ivy Pocket!
From School Library Journal
Gr 4–6—In this sequel to Anyone but Ivy Pocket, Ivy's life has taken a turn for the macabre. Not only has she been recently adopted by a pair of shady coffin makers, she is also seeing ghosts on the streets of Victorian London. Ivy learns her recently deceased friend Rebecca is not actually dead; rather, she's stuck in a limbolike world that happens to be just around the corner. Ever dauntless, Ivy magics her way into this world, only to discover she's fallen into a nefarious trap. If that weren't enough adventure, she has also been enlisted by a pretty stranger to find her missing brother. Krisp takes his time to weave these seemingly disparate mysteries together, and their progress can sometimes sag with the book's hefty page count. However, this story is chock-full of ridiculous pratfalls and thrilling escapes, sure to leave any reader eager to persevere. Observant readers may well anticipate the perils around each corner Ivy turns, but that will not detract from their enjoyment of watching her fall straight down to the bottom. VERDICT The brash and riotous character of Ivy will delight readers through another gripping—and laugh-out-loud—adventure.—Anna Murphy, Berkeley Carroll School Library, Brooklyn

“The writing has moments of brilliance and plenty of entertainment value. Dauntless, ruthless, and clueless (a dangerous combination), Ivy ricochets from one escape to the next in book two of the Ivy Pocket series.” (Booklist)
“This story is chock-full of ridiculous pratfalls and thrilling escapes, sure to leave any reader eager to persevere. …The brash and riotous character of Ivy will delight readers through another gripping and laugh-out-loud adventure.” (School Library Journal)

Luckily, Ivy Pocket always lands on her feet—having all the natural instincts of a frightened feline. With the Clock Diamond in hand, she hurries to rescue her best friend, Rebecca, who is being held prisoner in a parallel world. But Ivy Pocket has fallen ill, there’s a man in a white suit following her everywhere, and the Butterfields seem to be behind yet another plot to lock her away. With a few tricks and all the natural instincts of a master of disguise, Ivy Pocket is sure she can dodge her enemies long enough to pull off the most daring rescue anyone has ever seen.
