Magic Secrets
Linda Chapman
- Reading
- If the reader is new to the series, briefly discuss Lucy’s situation before reading. Afterwards, explore how magic, responsibility and friendship shape her choices without assuming the ending resolves every concern.
- Themes
- Responsibility and power: Lucy is foretold to have an important part in protecting others and must practise her powers to prepare. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Secrecy and friendship: Lucy cannot tell her parents about her stardust secret and is unsure whether her best friends can help. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
- Worth knowing
- The story includes threatened safety, dark spirits, strange happenings and a child keeping a significant secret from her parents. The emotional weight of these elements may be worth noticing.
