What is Spell and Spindle about?
Doll Bones meets Splendors and Glooms as a boy who trades bodies with a wooden marionette.... The Museum of Peculiar Arts holds many oddities--a mechanical heart, a diary bound in its owner's skin... and Penny, a child-size marionette who almost looks alive. Fog clouds Penny's memories from before the museum, but she catches glimpses here and there: a stage, deep red curtains, long-fingered hands gripping her strings.One day, a boy named Chance touches Penny's strings and hears her voice in his head. Penny can listen, and watch, and think?Now someone else is watching Penny and Chance--a man with a sharp face, a puppeteer who has the tools to change things. A string through a needle. A twist of a spindle. And suddenly Chance is trapped in Penny's marionette body, while Penny is free to run and dance. She knows that finding a way to switch back is the right thing to do. But this body feels so wonderful, so full of life! How can Penny ever return to her puppet shell?
