A bit of magic, a sprinkling of adventure, and a whole lot of heart collide in All the Impossible Things, Lindsay Lackey’s extraordinary middle-grade novel about a young girl navigating the foster care system in search of where she belongs.
Meet Ruby "Red" Byrd--a young, unique girl facing the turbulence of life while grappling with a powerful, mysterious connection to the wind. As Red navigates the unpredictable storms of the foster care system, her powers resonate with her inner turmoil--intensifying with her fear, anger, and confusion. We follow her journey as she’s tossed into the loving arms of the Grooves, an unconventional couple who run a quaint petting zoo, amid a symphony of quirky creatures and unexplained gifts of their own. This newfound idyllic sanctuary is soon threatened by a familiar tempest--her chaotic mother. Longing for familial love and caught in a maelstrom of emotions, Red’s story is a challenge to master her incredible abilities, surpass the impossible, and find the family she craves.
