Luck in Little Joe

The Connors used to be lucky. People came from miles around to stay in their hotel and bask in the light of its luck-granting chandelier. But the family feuded over who would inherit the chandelier, and when Great-grandpa Edmonton died, it, too, was lost. Ever since that day, the Connors' luck became a curse.

For twelve-year-old Shiloh Connor's family, this means having to move every year, and never getting to stay in a forever home. It means unexpected allergic reactions, like rashes around the color yellow, or bad spelling after eating cranberries. Worst of all, Shiloh herself is gradually becoming invisible.

When word reaches them that the chandelier has been sighted, Shiloh sees her chance to lift the curse and get the luck back. That is—unless her no-good cousins get to it first. (For ages 9-12)
