Wild Mountain Ivy

Twelve-year-old Ivy is still sick months after catching a common virus.
Hoping for a reset, Ivy and her mom spend the summer in the Blue Ridge Mountains, where Ivy’s uncle has converted an old house into a bed and breakfast. Ivy starts dreaming about a girl named Jessie Pearl, who stayed at the house a hundred years ago when it was a sanatorium, a treatment center for tuberculosis patients. As Ivy delves into the history of the house, hoping to find out what happened to Jessie, she also makes changes in her own life—discovering that rest isn’t weakness, that difference isn’t failure, and that healing can come in many forms.
