By law, it belongs to the King, but twelve-year-old orphan Cristabel Seagrave has other plans. She and the rest of the household--her sister, Flossie; her brother, Digby, long-awaited heir to Chilcombe manor; Maudie Kitcat, kitchen maid; Taras, visiting artist--build a theatre from the beast's skeletal rib cage. Within the Whalebone Theatre, Cristabel can escape her feckless stepparents and brisk governesses, and her imagination comes to life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs Cristabel grows into a headstrong young woman, World War II rears its head. She and Digby become British secret agents on separate missions in Nazi-occupied France--a more dangerous kind of playacting, it turns out, and one that threatens to tear the family apart.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Whalebone Theatre: A Read with Jenna Pick | Joanna Quinn | Paperback | 9780593467152 | Used: Like New | Fiction 1728863 (temp: 2)","offer_id":48167591444632,"sku":"1728863","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whalebone Theatre: A Read with Jenna Pick | Joanna Quinn | Paperback | 9780593467152 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks A 1750877","offer_id":48882894471320,"sku":"1750877","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81r7602eRbL.jpg?v=1771950899","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/whalebone-theatre-a-read-with-jenna-pick","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
