A Pinch of Magic by Michelle Harrison
A spellbinding middle grade fantasy about three sisters who go on a quest to break the curse that's haunted their family for generations.All Betty Widdershins wants is an adventure--one that takes her far away from Crowstone, the gloomy island where she's always lived. But instead of an adventure, Betty and her sisters, Fliss and Charlie, are given of a set of magical objects, each with its own powers: a scruffy carpet bag, a set of wooden nesting dolls, and a gilt-framed mirror. And these magical objects come with their own terrible secret: the sisters' family is haunted by a generations-long curse that prevents them from ever leaving their island--at the cost of death.
The sisters set out to break the curse and free their family forever. But after stumbling upon a mysterious prisoner who claims to be able to help them, they find themselves in great danger. And in order to break the curse--and stay alive--they must unravel a mystery that goes back centuries, one that involves shipwrecks, smugglers, and sorcery of the most perilous kind.
A Woman in Residence and Self-Help for Premenstrual Syndrome are written by Michelle Harrison, M.D., a psychiatrist and family physician. Dr. Harrison is the Director of Medical Affairs for Johnson & Johnson Global Absorbent Products and Materials Research at the moment. She is also a Clinical Associate Professor of Family Medicine at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey's Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. Dr. Harrison is married and has two daughters. When she couldn't locate a book that said what she wanted to tell her own children, she began a discussion with her girls.
