[2021]., Pre-adolescent, Alfred A. Knopf Call No: FIC Edition: First edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s) Summary Note: "Fiona may have problems, but she's no damsel in distress. She'd rather be the one wielding the wand in the story: she wants to be the fairy godperson. So when her mom sends her off to stay with relatives in a place called Cold Hope for the summer, Fiona decides it's time to start training for the role. And wow, do these people need help! Aunt Becky's bakery is failing, Great-uncle Timothy draws but never speaks, and Great-Aunt Alta is the gloomiest, doomiest woman she's every met.

Sometimes things do get worse before they get better. And sometimes trying to help fix other people's problems can show you a way to work on your own..."--Provided by the publisher.
