Oh, I have no idea. I can't even guess. It sounds like a good book.

Tea, don't guess. Google. A synopsis of the book will give you the answer. The goal is to learn more. You don't have to know the answers beforehand.

It is a good book about family. I'm close with my siblings so I really enjoyed this.

Sassafrass is the oldest and a poet and a weaver. Cypress is a danger. Indigo, the youngest, lives in poetry, can talk to her dolls, and has a great gift of seeing the obvious magic of the world.

Cypres dances

Indigo plays violin and makes dolls

Rhapsody, you were so close.

Tea, if your library doesn't have this book, I will loan you ours. Let me know. Of course, you'd probably find it used. I get most of our books through trade and used. Like most non-profits, we are underfunded. Actually we're not funded at all.

Susan, thank you. I will let you know.
