What a delightful and charming little book!

It really brought back the magic that childhood should be full of, with the air of Enid Blyton surrounding it, I felt it really captured the excitement and mystery of the unexplained that fascinated me a as a child.

This is such a fantastic, gorgeous, sparkly book with just the right touch of magic! I would have loved it as a little girl and it's well-written enough that I enjoyed it so much at the age of 23 I devoured it in one sitting!!
An enchanting story of a young girl who moves home with her parents to a new and somewhat magical place. A genuinely heart-warming story about love and friendship and learning.
