SUMMARY:Kids 12 up! Elizabeth Lim reads from Spin the Dawn
DESCRIPTION:Kids 12 up! Elizabeth Lim reads from Spin the Dawn\, a sweeping YA fantasy about a young girl who poses as a boy to compete for the role of imperial tailor and embarks on an impossible journey to sew three magic dresses\, from the sun\, the moon\, and the stars.\n\n\n\n\n“Pure magic. Romance\, artistry\, and deep enchantment.”–Gregory Maguire\, author of Wicked \n“What an amazing creation! Every time I thought I knew where it was going\, I was wrong. This is a white-knuckle read.”–Tamora Pierce\, author of Tempests and Slaughter \nTo reserve your seat\, purchase a copy of Spin the Dawn by speaking to a bookseller or ordering from our website. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaia Tamarin dreams of becoming the greatest tailor in the land\, but as a girl\, the best she can hope for is to marry well. When a royal messenger summons her ailing father\, once a tailor of renown\, to court\, Maia poses as a boy and takes his place. She knows her life is forfeit if her secret is discovered\, but she’ll take that risk to achieve her dream and save her family from ruin. There’s just one catch: Maia is one of twelve tailors vying for the job. \nBackstabbing and lies run rampant as the tailors compete in challenges to prove their artistry and skill. Maia’s task is further complicated when she draws the attention of the court magician\, Edan\, whose piercing eyes seem to see straight through her disguise.\nAnd nothing could have prepared her for the final challenge: to sew three magic gowns for the emperor’s reluctant bride-to-be\, from the laughter of the sun\, the tears of the moon\, and the blood of stars. With this impossible task before her\, she embarks on a journey to the far reaches of the kingdom\, seeking the sun\, the moon\, and the stars\, and finding more than she ever could have imagined. \nElizabeth Lim grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area\, where she was raised on a hearty diet of fairy tales\, myths\, and songs. Before becoming an author\, Lim was a professional film and video game composer\, and she still tends to come up with her best book ideas when writing near a piano. An alumna of Harvard and Juilliard\, she now lives in New York City with her husband and daughter.
