Join Bonnie Bailey as she enters a magical, world-traveling Faire in this epic middle-grade fantasy about finding your own strength.

Thirteen-year-old Bonnie Bailey comes from a long line of beekeepers. But her family’s apiary is failing, and Bonnie and her mom need money fast if they have any chance of keeping it going. When a mysterious woman appears among the bee hives and offers Bonnie a job at a fair that’s in town for one night only, Bonnie reluctantly takes a chance. But the Faire of Worlds isn’t a regular carnival—She’s a sentient, magical being who exists in a nomadic pocket reality. Her residents are people and creatures rescued from parallel dimensions of Earth. 
     Bonnie is swept into a world of unimaginable wonders and dangerous undercurrents. She tends a colony of giant bees, befriends a young cowboy who’s on the run for stealing eggs from flying turtles, and discovers that not everything at the Faire is as happy as it seems. When the Faire is threatened by dark forces, Bonnie faces an impossible decision: return to the safety of her own reality or stay and fight to protect this fantastical world she has grown to love? With a cast of unforgettable characters and boundless fantastical curiosities, Bonnie Bailey and the Faire of Worlds will lure readers back again and again.

About the Author

As a child, Ellie Kirk couldn’t wait for the carnival to come to town each fall. Her memories of those fun-filled nights on the midway (along with a healthy dose of imagination) inspired the magical Faire of Worlds. Ellie lives at the southernmost tip of New Jersey, between the Atlantic Ocean and the Delaware Bay. When she’s not at the beach, she enjoys working in her pollinator garden—a safe haven for bugs, birds, and bees. Ellie also makes the best homemade cannoli in all the land (shells and filling!). You can learn more about Ellie (including her cannoli recipe) at http://www.elliekirk.com.
