Windswept / Margi Preus ; illustrated by Armando Veve.

Preus, Margi, (author.). Veve, Armando, (illustrator.).

Summary:
In Tag's world, children are disappearing. "Youngers" who venture Outside are windswept - vanishing in the swirling snow - Tag's sisters among them. Many have tried to find the lost children; all have failed. And since the Other Times, the Powers That Be seem intent on keeping it that way. Little remains from those times: snippets of song, heaps of plastic trash, and a few banned texts - including a book of fairy tales. An unlikely crew of Youngers joins forces: Boots, who can climb anything; Ant, who will eat anything; Ren, who will say anything; and Tag, who doesn't appear to have any talent whatsoever. With their dubious skills, the fairy tales, a possibly magic ribbon, and an unwillingness to accept "that's impossble," they set off to rescue their windswept siblings.
