After saving the library from evil wizard-wannabe Salt, things are back normal for Kit Spencer and her friends, well as normal as it can get for a trainee wizard. Until Kit's magic starts going haywire and animals in the local park start talking. Getting to the bottom of this mystery will take them to the lochs of Scotland, where they'll encounter some very rude mermaids, an ancient curse and rather a lot of rats.
This series is so. much. FUN! It has everything: characters you'll like, want to root for and watch grow (what's also refreshing is that, thouhgh the magic of books and reading is a BIG theme, and amply represented through Kit's best friends Josh and Alita, Kit herself is someone who, initially, finds reading challenging, and has to be brought aaround to it, making it perfect for children who themselves find reading more of a chore than fun - and so much more effective than just saying it's good for you), action, humour, LOTS of great references (have fun spotting them all) and adorably gorgeous illustrations.
Looking forward to future installments!
