Hereville: How Mirka Met a Meteorite

Written by: Barry Deutsch 

First line: Being grounded left Mirka with too much time and pent-up energy. 

Why you should read this book: After just barely outwitting a troll in her first adventure, Mirka is eager to continue a life of adventure, but her second encounter with the troll doesn't go quite as well. Through a bizarre series of events, Mirka finds herself plagued by an underhanded doppelganger who seems to be better at living Mirka's life than Mirka is herself, and who is preventing Mirka from getting anything to eat to boot. Will Mirka have to give up her family, her home, and her identity, or will she be able to outwit a more clever version of herself? 

Why you shouldn't read this book: Its grasp of astrophysics is sketchy.
