Neef, the human girl who's the official changeling of Central Park may have survived a life-threatening quest (in last year's Changeling), but she soon discovers that's nothing compared to surviving her first day… at school! The Green Lady has decided Neef should be educated and so she's off to Miss Van Loon's School for Mortal Changelings to learn the basics of diplomacy and simple magic with New York Between's other changelings. Of course, on her first day Neef not only manages to break a few rules - of which there see to be hundreds! - but she also makes an enemy of the school's queen bee - Tiffany from the Upper East Side. Then, as though school wasn't bad enough, the Mermaid Queen of New York Harbor threatens to turn all the fresh water of New York to brine and destroy Central Park unless Neef can return the queen's magic mirror to her. Can Neef save the day and pass her classes? It's a good thing she has some new changeling friends to help! Your young readers will love Neef's free spirit, boundless courage, and quick wits as she struggles to save all the green places of magical New York Between. Ages 10 and up. 286pp
