When Kambia Elaine Flew in from Neptune (Hardcover, Bound for Schools & Libraries ed.)

Shayla Dubois considers herself a reader and a writer, and lately she's put a lot in her notebook. Her sister, Tia, has run away because of their mother's rules. Then there's Shayla's new neighbor, Kambia Elaine, who tells all kinds of fantastic stories. But as Kambia's stories grow more scary, Shayla realizes Kambia is trying to tell her something--something that she can't say out loud.
