Review: 'This is a warm fantasy story, full of wishes and magic ... Children will love the zany twists to this story and the lighthearted language and humour ... A charming book with a great sense of fun, and should prove popular with newly confident readers' Carousel. 'An idiosyncratic genius' The Times.

But Gardner's skill is to contain even her wildest ideas within a meticulous plot' Emily Bearn, Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year 2018. 'This enchanting new series is an absolute delight ... Striking just the right note of whimsy and magic' Fiona Noble, The Bookseller, Editor's Choice.
