Half Magic
Submitted by SarahKate on Sat, 11/03/2007 - 23:19.SarahKate's Notes:
This book is timeless and hilarious. One of the most wonderful parts of my life is laughing out loud with my children and we did that many, many times throughout this book. Four children find a magic charm that will grant wishes, and how they handle it and the lessons they learn is fascinating. The imagination in this book is inspiring.

Edward Eager has been delighting young readers for more than 40 years with stories that mix magic and reality. Half Magic, the most popular of his tales about four children who encounter magical coins, time-travel herb gardens, and other unlikely devices, is a warm, funny, original adventure. The title refers to a coin that the children find. Through a comical series of coincidences, they discover that the coin is magic. Well, it's not totally magic--it's only (you guessed it) half magic. That means there's a certain logic to the wishes one must make to generate a desired outcome.
Marigold and the Feather of Hope, The Journey Begins (The Fairy Chronicles)
Submitted by SarahKate on Tue, 11/06/2007 - 16:30.SarahKate's Notes:
I was really impressed with this book! In addition to being ordinary girls, some girls are granted a fairy spirit, and can change into a fairy any time they wish. Magic is all around us, though we may see the garden Gnomes as eggplants and a fairy as a butterfly. This is the first in a series the my 7 yo is very anxious to hear more of!
