HEAVEN EYES

David Almond, . . Dell /Laurel-Leaf, $5.50 (256pp) ISBN 978-0-440-22910-0

Three orphan children residing at Whitegate set out on an adventure-cum-rescue mission and discover a ghostlike girl with webbed hands. "The tantalizing settings and poetic narrative have a lingering effect, much like a prophetic dream," said PW in a starred review. Ages 10-up. (Oct.)
