In 1910, the small town of Larkspur, California is shaken by the actions of early settlers. The McCalls, the Murphys, and the Kilkennys collide in a crisis of old ideas and new technology, as well as clashing ideas about the lower, middle, and upper classes. Bestselling author Patricia Garfield's latest work tells the story of Katie McCall's dream romance with Ned Kilkenny. The copper-skinned young man, who labors in the town lumberyard and serves as a waiter, appears to be poor and unskilled. Yet other clues suggest he may actually be someone far more distinguished. Garfield's latest work is a romance, a historical novel, and a captivating retelling of immigrants forced to face new challenges including prejudice. Mostly it is a story of the transforming power of love.

Delfine the Dream Girl is the story of an eleven-year-old super-heroine discovering her power and learning to harness it. As she falls asleep, Delfine undergoes a transformation: her straight hair turns curly. This "curl power" lifts Delfine out of bed and sends her flying through the open window to land in the midst of a child's nightmare. Inside the nightmare Delfine helps dreamers save themselves using secret techniques she learns from the journals written by her missing parents. Her mother, an anthropologist, and her father, an archeologist, have disappeared on a "dig." Delfine is trying to rescue them. Delfine's quests take her inside typical dreams of sleepers in different countries, cultures, and times (a kind of Tin-Tin meets The Magic Tree House and The Wizard of Oz). Delfine reveals how young readers become creative dreamers: she presents useful methods for coping with dark dreams; she shows how to use dream imagery for creative projects (art, poetry, songs).
