Sammie and The Keepers of The Library: The Lost Chapter - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Sammie and The Keepers of The Library: The Lost Chapter is the second enchanted
adventure for Sammie, a polite and curious cat, and Sophia, a tiny mouse whose voice is
small but whose heart is enormous. As autumn arrives, the Keepers make their evening
Rounds through the magical old library, only to find that the first book, the blue one with
the silver pawprint, has gone completely blank. Its words are draining away, and the
whispering voices of a hundred thousand books are growing quieter by the hour.

Beneath a loose floorboard, the Keepers find the journal of Ophelia, the very first Keeper,
along with a warning: an unfinished story has grown lonely, and something gray and hungry
called the Hush is taking words from every world to fill the silence. The only way to stop it is
to relight the Lantern of Lost Stories in the clock tower of Mislay, a wonky town made of
everything anyone has ever misplaced, and to do it at midnight on Hollow’s Eve. To light it,
they must earn three sparks. Each one must be given, never taken.

Along the way, the Keepers meet a cast of unforgettable friends: Barnaby, the three-legged
lamplighter who has kept the lights burning in Mislay for years, hoping someone would
come; Zephyra, the great cloud-dragon of the Sky City; Ottoline, a purple octopus with a
spectacle on every arm and riddles in every bubble; Fennimore, a gentle fox who navigates
the Golden Desert by sound; and Percival, the shy Ghost of Chapter Nine, who lives on the
(not very) Spooky Shelf.

Full of whimsy, wordplay, and just the right amount of Halloween shivers, this story is
about the different kinds of bravery: being scared and going anyway, listening closely
enough to hear the answer, and being kind without expecting anything back. It also gently
reminds young readers that being lost is not the same as being unloved. It only means
someone hasn’t found you yet.

With fourteen short chapters, a warm read-aloud voice, and discussion questions for “Little
Keepers” at the back, this is a perfect story for bedtime, classroom, and the whole cozy
stretch of autumn nights. And when the last page turns, a small green book with a crescent
moon is already whispering, “Turn me…”
