By law, it belongs to the King, but twelve-year-old orphan Cristabel Seagrave has other plans. She and the rest of the household—her sister, Flossie; her brother, Digby, long-awaited heir to Chilcombe manor; Maudie Kitcat, kitchen maid; Taras, visiting artist—build a theatre from the beast’s skeletal rib cage. Within the Whalebone Theatre, Cristabel can escape her feckless stepparents and brisk governesses, and her imagination comes to life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Cristabel grows into a headstrong young woman, World War II rears its head. She and Digby become British secret agents on separate missions in Nazi-occupied France—a more dangerous kind of playacting, it turns out, and one that threatens to tear the family apart.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46304761118949,"sku":"NP9780593467152","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780593467152.jpg?v=1767742184","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/the-whalebone-theatre-a-read-with-jenna-pick-a-novel-isbn-9780593467152","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
