The Pandora Device

Her grandmother doesn't like to talk about Stella's parents, even when she asks. But now that she's in sixth grade, Stella needs answers. A rusty box provides a clue to the place her parents met-Camp Hawthorne-and Stella is determined to go. The camp's secret draws her into extraordinary possibilities she never knew existed. And despite warnings to leave the past alone, she uncovers a mystery linked to her parents. Now she must decide how much she will risk to find the truth. "THE PANDORA DEVICE is filled with all the ingredients one needs for a rollicking adventure: mad scientists, special powers, a desperate search for missing parents, and...American History? Who knew! Joyce McPherson has created a world at Camp Hawthorne that you will not soon forget, and probably wish you'd attended." -David Yoo, author of THE DETENTION CLUB
