Greta struggles to find her voice as a middle school journalist until she succumbs to the mischief of an enchanted wooden doll in this middle grade novel with a hint of fairy-tale magic.
There are no fairy tale endings in middle school.
Greta Starr has one dream: to be a famous reporter. Unfortunately she's been assigned to write for the paper's most boring beat, and she feels stuck. Then, on her twelfth birthday, Greta receives a mysterious cuckoo clock with a wooden dancer named Lulu inside. Every hour, the doll twirls in time with the music-until one night she comes to life. Lulu is infused with magic and mischief. With Lulu's sly encouragement, Greta engineers a feel-good story to report, setting in motion a series of remarkable, if deceitful, happy endings at school that help Greta gain popularity. But when the truth threatens Greta's friendships, she is confronted with very real consequences that Lulu's magic can't fix.
This coming-of-age story explores the blurred line between fact and fiction as Greta realizes the key to being a great reporter-and a great friend-is striving for truth, not perfection.
