The Girl Who Drank the Moon

In a world where the Protectorate sacrifices a baby to an alleged witch to ensure peace, the benevolent witch Xan rescues the child, Luna, and inadvertently imbues her with magic by feeding her moonlight. As Luna's extraordinary powers begin to emerge, she embarks on a journey to unravel the secrets of her past, the true nature of her magical guardians—a swamp witch, a tiny dragon, and a perpetually sad bog monster—and the profound connection to the sorrowful town that left her behind. This Newbery Medal-winning novel is a captivating exploration of destiny, sacrifice, and the search for truth.
