Discover the Newbery Honor winner Doll Bones , from Holly Black, the cocreator of the Spiderwick Chronicles.
Is the Doll just a Doll or something more sinister? And if there really is a ghost, will it let them go now that it has them in its clutches? Doll Bones is a winner of the Newbery Honor, is the recipient of six starred reviews, was on five Best Book lists, and was called perfect by The New York Times ..
But nothing goes according to plan, and as their adventure turns into an epic journey, creepy things begin to happen.
Zach and Alice and Poppy set off on one last adventure to lay the Queen\'s ghost to rest.
Their friendship might be over, until Poppy declares she\'s been having dreams about the Queen--and the ghost of a girl who will not rest until the bone-china Doll is buried in her empty grave.
Zach\'s father pushes him to give up make-believe, and Zach quits the game.
But they are in middle school now.
Ruling over all is the Great Queen, a bone-china Doll cursing those who displease her.
And for almost as long, they\'ve been playing one continuous, ever-changing game of pirates and thieves, mermaids and warriors.
Six starred reviews Zach, Poppy, and Alice have been friends forever.
