The Feather

Katarina Genar, illustrated by Signe Gabriel

The town of Misty Alley is a place not known by many, but it is the home to friends Dante and Paloma. One day they meet the secretive cat, Kosmos, that lures them to an abandoned old theatre where they find a grand chandelier. Suddenly, the chandelier starts moving and Dante and Paloma are pulled up into a vortex. They spin faster and faster and then suddenly everything stops, the entire theatre looks brand new! A ballet dancer enters the stage, with a white feather in her hair. It seems as if they have come to a different time. But why? And what does Kosmos want them to do here?

The Feather is the first stand-alone book in Katarina Genar’s Misty Alley series about friends Dante and Paloma who travel through time. The books are easy to read, exciting chapter books about time travel and magical things with atmospheric and intriguing illustrations by Signe Gabriel.

Katarina Genar has the ability to write short texts that are easy to read in a clear and direct language, whilst also managing to write stories that are mysterious and enthralling. She has spellbound readers with her stand-alone middle-grade and easy-toread series about The Mysterious School.

Signe Gabriel is a Danish illustrator living in Sweden. She studied visual communication at Malmö University and semiotics at Aarhus University in Denmark. She has previously done illustrations for apps, educational materials, and children’s books, among other things.
