This is a magical rescue adventure featuring talking beavers, a threatening witch, most of the island’s inhabitants imprisoned, spell books and secret passages. It offers imaginative peril alongside friendship, kindness and bravery.
Vivian French, illustrated by Pauline Gregory
A playful fantasy adventure combines a damaged family business, an apologetic young ogre and a kingdom facing an attempted takeover. Its pleasures include imaginative names, chocolate-cake humour and characters working together to repair harm and restore stability.
Humphrey Carpenter
A playful school fantasy where a wizard-teacher uses magic to enliven lessons and manage disruption. Comedy, classroom mischief and recurring magical characters appear central to the book’s appeal.
