While cleaning out her reclusive grandfather’s house, Joplin discovers pieces of a broken platter in a cookie tin. After having the platter repaired, Joplin wishes that she could both find a friend at school, and befriend the girl pictured in the platter. The next day, Joplin befriends a boy named Barrett, and also notices a girl outside her apartment. A girl who looks remarkably like the girl in the platter…
The girl introduces herself as Sofie, and she has a terrible secret. Cursed to grant wishes for the owner of the platter for all of time, she has been trapped for centuries. Joplin and Barrett vow to help her, but freeing Sofie is more complicated than they could have imagined, and the three friends end up against a sinister foe who could put them all in terrible danger.

Awards/获奖情况:“乔普林和苏菲的故事以魔法和些许危险为主题,涉及到家庭、失去、友谊、误解、善良和第二次机会等主题。”——基尔库克评论(星评)
“乔普林是一个画风优美的角色:能干、复杂、易怒,对周围的人很敏感,即使是在学校被欺负的时候……这本书以智慧、热情和优雅的笔触,带领读者踏上他们不想错过的旅程。”(书目)
“斯坦利(被选中的王子)巧妙地在这个关于友谊和第二次机会的令人振奋的故事中注入了魔力和神秘……斯坦利的聪明的前提很快就能吸引年轻读者的想象力,但这是乔普林,她有着坚定的决心;苏菲,带着她温柔的决心;而巴雷特,以他的热情和逻辑,使这个故事变得特别,成为真正的友谊和牺牲的例证。”(《出版人周刊》(星评))
“斯坦利巧妙地创造了友谊,这两代人之间以及乔普林的同辈人之间的友谊,都是这个故事的解决之道。悬疑、神秘、体贴、偶尔忧郁,这是一个错综复杂的故事,最终将苏菲与乔普林(以及她的母亲和祖父)联系在一起,以一种令人惊讶和令人满意的方式。”(霍恩书刊)
“With magic and a bit of danger, and touching on themes of family, loss, friendship, misunderstandings, kindness, and second chances, Joplin and Sofie’s story is not soon forgotten.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))
Joplin is a beautifully drawn character: capable, complex, prickly, and very aware of those around her, even while being bullied at school... Written with intelligence, verve, and polish, this unusual fantasy takes readers on a journey they won’t want to miss. (Booklist (starred review))
“Stanley (The Chosen Prince) deftly infuses magic and mystery into this uplifting story about friendship and second chances... Stanley’s clever premise will quickly capture the imaginations of young readers, but it’s Joplin, with her headstrong determination; Sofie, with her soft-spoken resolve; and Barrett, with his enthusiasm and logic, who make this story special, exemplifying true friendship and sacrifice.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))
“Stanley’s deftly created friendships, both intergenerational and among Joplin’s peers, winningly factor into the story’s resolution.Suspenseful, mysterious, thoughtful, and occasionally melancholic, this is an intricately plotted tale that ultimately connects Sofie to Joplin (and to her mother and grandfather) in a surprising and satisfying way.” (The Horn Book)
