Half Magic

$8.90
Half Magic
Half Magic

Whimsical children's tale of magic coin mishaps.

If enchanting adventures with a vintage charm sound delightful, then "Half Magic" is right up your alley. The clever concept of a coin that grants wishes, but only by halves, leads to wonderfully engaging scenarios that will tickle your fancy. It's a particularly good fit if you're looking to recapture some of that childlike wonder or share it with younger readers in the family.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Four children wish on a Half Magic coin that gets their mother Alison half-way home, rescued by Mr Smith. Mark's wish zaps them to a desert without an island, where half-talking cat Carrie gabbles to a camel. Romantic Katherine battles Launcelot. Eldest Jane rejects siblings for another family. Stubborn youngest, Martha, causes a riot downtown.
