Wow. Just wow. I‘m a sucker for stories with a witchy, magicky theme & so I couldn‘t wait to get stuck into this. Now I‘m done I have no idea why I waited so long. This is the cleverest kids‘ book I‘ve read in a long time - it has enough plot twists to keep older kids glued to the pages, enough gorgeous characters, magic & mayhem to keep the younger ones amused & enough of a gloriously bookish storyline that adults are bound to love it too.
