À propos de ce produit
Product Information
It's 1952 and the Scott family has just moved from Los Angeles to London. Here, fourteen-year-old Janie meets a mysterious apothecary and his son, Benjamin Burrows - a fascinating boy who's not afraid to stand up to authority and dreams of becoming a spy. When Benjamin's father is kidnapped, Janie and Benjamin must uncover the secrets of the apothecary's sacred book, the Pharmacopoeia, in order to find him, all while keeping it out of the hands of their enemies - Russian spies in possession of nuclear weapons. Discovering and testing potions they never believed could exist, Janie and Benjamin embark on a dangerous race to save the apothecary and prevent impending disaster. Together with Ian Schoenherr's breathtaking illustrations, this is a truly stunning package from cover to cover.

Praise for Maile Meloy's enchanting E. B. White Award-winning novel, THE APOTHECARY: "Inventive, smart and fun, an absolute delight."- Rebecca Stead , Newbery Award-winning author of When You Reach Me STARRED REVIEW from PUBLISHERS WEEKLY: "[A] thoroughly enjoyable adventure, filled with magic, humor, memorable characters, and just a bit of sweet romance. With evocative, confident prose and equally atmospheric spot art from Schoenherr, adult author Meloy's first book for young readers is an auspicious one." From THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW: "[Meloy] brings to her first book for young readers the same emotional resonance that has won acclaim for her adult fiction, grounding her story in the intricacies of family love, friendship and loyalty blended here with the complicated fluctuations of adolescence." From THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: "Maile Meloy's sly commingling of the real and the imaginary make this a witty and entertaining Cold War romp-with a touch of age-appropriate romance." From USA TODAY : "The title of Maile Meloy's smartly written, page-turning adventure/fantasy refers to a magical druggist in London in 1952. . . . It's for curious readers who, like Meloy's characters, can make room in their imaginations and 'allow for the possibilities.'", Praise for Maile Meloy's THE APOTHECARY : A New York Times Bestseller E.B. White Read-Aloud Book Award Winner 2011 Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year 2011 Wall Street Journal Best of the Year 2011 Chicago Public Library Best of the Best Reading List "Inventive, smart and fun, an absolute delight." - REBECCA STEAD , Newbery Award-winning author of WHEN YOU REACH ME FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW: "[Meloy] brings to her first book for young readers the same emotional resonance that has won acclaim for her adult fiction, grounding her story in the intricacies of family love, friendship and loyalty blended here with the complicated fluctuations of adolescence."

STARRED REVIEW FROM PUBLISHERS WEEKLY : "[A] thoroughly enjoyable adventure, filled with magic, humor, memorable characters, and just a bit of sweet romance. With evocative, confident prose and equally atmospheric spot art from Schoenherr, adult author Meloy's first book for young readers is an auspicious one." FROM BOOKLIST : "Those who know little about blacklisting, the Cold War, and European life after WWII will just have to dive into the fantasy-adventure pool, which runs long and deep. Magic elixirs, transformational disguises, and everyday cunning help Janie, Benjamin, and several scientists elude capture." FROM KIRKUS REVIEWS : "[I]ts blend of history, culture and the anxiety of the time with magical "science" will keep readers just as spellbound as the characters." FROM VOYA : "[G]ood, strong historical fiction spiced with intrigue, magical realism, mystery, suspense, and science…the spies and historical twist give it a lot of flavor. The illustrations are fluid and delightful."

I wish it was clear that was inscribed to someone else before I purchased it. Even an image of the inscription would've helped. It's such an amazing book. I think I still would've purchased it at that price, but I just feel like that was hidden if it wasn't, I missed it. I apologize .
