Summary

This magical flight of fancy is for children aged six to 12 years old and for the young at heart! It is a delightful and absorbing tale which will leave you wanting more.

The story begins as follows:

A dull, wet school holiday which has been so disappointing, is now drawing to a close for Alex. All this changes when an unexpected visit to the Great Museum of History with his eccentric aunt sets off a fantastic chain of events. Alex finds himself transported to a magical island far away, in the midst of talking creatures, a kindly wizard, and a magnificent golden eagle.

Pitted against the dastardly schemes of the Grizzly Grumpot, find out what happens to Alex and his new friends when you step into this colourful world of adventure, mystery, and spells that don't always work!

Absolutely charming magical adventure story

What a brilliant traditional yet contemporary magical adventure story full of wonder and humour for kids (and adults alike), with a vast cast of interesting and lovable characters.

Beautifully read by the author with each character hilariously bought to life by the great character actor Howard Berger. His voices had us all literally rolling around laughing on the floor chapter after chapter!

Highly recommended!

A gripping, magical story and a truly entertaining listen for all ages from 3 to 83 years old. With a wide variety of original and imaginative characters. Very enjoyable. Here’s to the sequel!
