“One of the most sensitive, realistic explorations of mental health I’ve yet seen in a middle grade novel. . . . A monumental piece of work, and utterly transportive.” — Adam Gidwitz, New York Times bestselling, Newbery Honor–winning author of The Inquisitor’s Tale“Rialto made me feel like I was a kid reader again, completely lost in the pages of a novel while the world around me thrummed with mystery and magic and possibility.” — Anne Ursu, award-winning author of The Troubled Girls of Dragomir Academy“A marvelous wonder of a novel that transports you to worlds you won’t ever want to leave.” — Grace Lin, New York Times bestselling, Newbery Honor–winning author of Where the Mountain Meets the Moon“Rialto is not just a story but a living, breathing place—vast and haunting and endless. . . . There is nothing like this book. You simply must read it.” — Jonathan Auxier, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Gardener“Rialto begs us to ‘pretend if you need to, believe if you can,’ and then gives us so much to believe in. The best book I’ve read in a long time.” — Laurel Snyder, author of National Book Award nominee Orphan Island“I would recommend Rialto to mystery readers, those who read for the family relationships, and those who would benefit from reading about anxiety. Kate Milford's fabulist magic is fantastic.” — Kaden Knight, Linden Tree Books, Los Altos, CA"Puzzle-novel master Milford outdoes herself here, [weaving] a tapestry of music boxes and mud-larking and wishing coins and fireworks into an entrancing climax . . . before slipping luxuriantly into a triumphant, memorable close." — The Horn Book (starred review)"A richly told tale that readers will reach for again and again. . . . Highly recommended." — School Library Journal"[A] whimsical fantasy. Grounded by a thoughtful story about sisters, this transporting, folkloric tale will delight." — Booklist"A lockpick’s handiwork and a fascinating list of bequests launch a magic-fueled investigation in this entrancing standalone mystery [and] whirlwind adventure." — Publishers Weekly"An adventure filled with fantasy, mystery, and danger." — The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"'Once upon a time, it was magical': true of the book and its setting alike." — Kirkus Reviews"Milford understands plotting and pacing so well, and her extravagant, even outlandish, characters are endlessly fascinating. If you have teens looking for immersive plots . . . then Rialto is the book for them. It is perfect beach reading—PERFECT—and not to be missed." — Colleen Mondor, Locus Magazine ???????"Kate Milford has crafted a delicious summertime mystery, imbued with magic and beauty at every turn. It is a celebration of human artistry, an ode to nostalgia and the ways it aches and comforts in turn, and a startingly accurate depiction of middle grade anxiety, all at once." — Wild Rumpus Books
