The days are getting shorter; there’s a chill in the air – Autumn is well and truly here. This is my favourite time of year with so many wonderful festivals and traditions. I was so excited to receive the next instalment in the Ivy Newt adventures with colourful leaves, a pumpkin patch, ghosts and dark trees on its gorgeous cover – it’s Hallowe’en!
Ivy Newt has a new mystery to solve. Why does the spooky house over the bay only appear at Hallowe’en? In a race against time, Ivy and her familiar Tom must break a powerful spell and outwit a crazy sorcerer, all before the last stroke of midnight…
Ivy Newt and the Time Thief is the second story in this highly illustrated series for young readers. Super accessible and appealing, it’s perfect for children who are just making the step into longer chapter books. Full of magic and adventure, it would make a fantastic class read aloud in Key Stage One during the autumn term.
Magda Brol’s black and white illustrations are so charming! Ivy and Tom are sure to become favourite characters as readers are absolutely captivated by their adventures.
