READ THE BLURB
Another
day. Another disaster.
After surviving a kidnapping and battling with spriggans, Matilda Whipplethorn finds her life in a suburban human house pretty boring. She’s been excluded from school because of her fire-making abilities and her former friends are afraid of her. Salvation comes in the form of a life-threatening illness. Her tutor, Miss Penrose, needs a medication and there’s only one place to get it, the spriggans. Matilda heads back to the antique mall to save Miss Penrose even though it just might cost her everything.

READ THE REVIEW
This is a cute book! I've not read the first one in the series YET... but I'm going to be sure to get it. Matilda will appeal to the middle school student, because they will be able to relate to her situation.
Love the idea of a small world living along side our own... kudos to Ms. Hartoin for this series!!
