Bookseller recommendation
“What happens when a painting goes missing at the local museum? It becomes famous of course! Rami and Veda are on the case, or else Rami's mother might take the fall. A brilliant and heartfelt exploration of immigrant families, growing up, and how love is the greatest motivator. With friendly ghosts and talking turtles, this book has it all!”

Bookseller recommendation
“A great fast paced mystery that brings two friends together! The ending of the book perfectly ties the different POVs together in such a creative way! Such a great little adventure that all ages will love! ”
— Lindsey • The Traveling Book Bus
From the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of A Rover's Story and Other Words for Home comes an extraordinary story about two friends, a ghost, a missing painting, and a turtle named Agatha. The perfect next read for fans of The Swifts, Kate DiCamillo, and Erin Entrada Kelly.
A painting has been stolen…!
When Rami sees a floating girl in the museum, he knows he has seen her somewhere before. Then he realizes: She looks just like the girl in the painting that has gone missing. But how does her appearance connect to the theft?
Agatha the turtle knows—she has been watching from the garden. But she can’t exactly tell anyone…can she?
Will Rami, with the help of his classmate, Veda, be able to solve the mystery? The clues are all around them, but they’ll have to be brave enough to really look.
This is a whimsical, moving story about the universal desire to be seen and understood and how art can help us find connection, even when we are at our loneliest.
