• by TRACEY BAPTISTE. Coal has just landed in his latest foster home, so he doesn't tell them that cops fired at and then chased him after he had been drawing chalk art on a nearby street. He definitely doesn't tell them that he turned invisible, too. In the process of figuring out what he is, he discovers that the situation is far stranger—and more dangerous—than he ever could have expected.
  

• by HENA KHAN. After giving up her room to visiting family and then losing leadership of the environmental club to someone who doesn't actually care about the club, Maya is fed up!

• by DONNA GEPHART. When famous spooky-story writer Silas Fang comes to stay at the famous Woofmore, he's hoping for a vacation full of rainbows, unicorns, and bubbles, because he spends all his time thinking about scary things for work. Rufus is happy to oblige. It should be easy — after all, the Woofmore is not haunted... or is it?
  

• by LIZ MONTAGUE. After a chaotic first semester of magic, Rose, Amethyst, and Lav are ready for next semester! But school is the last thing on their minds over winter break, because tensions are high between the Land Walkers and the Merfolk, and both Amethyst's mom and Rose's cousin have gone missing.
