Illustrations by Tory & Norman Taber CAUTION! Violet lives within the pages of this book. And her purple spreads to everything she touches … Violet lives behind garden walls. Is she magical? Is she the devil’s child—or simply cursed? When the lonely thirteen-year-old embarks on a dangerous journey to find the one boy that dared to befriend her, she travels at night … in the dark … to keep people from seeing her purple skin. But no one is more surprised than Violet when she unlocks her mysterious gift. Go where adventure, discovery and magic meet! Although this fun read captures the imagination of middle grade readers, discrimination is at the core of the novel … but so are possibilities, and they appear EVERYWHERE.
