Our Review

This enchanting fantasy series invites young readers into a world where a seemingly ordinary house contains extraordinary secrets, from magical portals to time-traveling adventures. Amy Sparkes crafts a whimsical universe filled with eccentric characters, clever puzzles, and imaginative settings that transform domestic spaces into gateways to fantastical realms. The narrative blends mystery and humor with just enough suspense to keep middle-grade readers eagerly turning pages, while the magical house concept provides a comforting anchor point for wild adventures. Children will delight in discovering each new magical room and unraveling the house's secrets alongside the relatable protagonists.

What sets this collection apart is how it balances high-stakes fantasy with cozy domestic elements, creating the perfect bridge for readers transitioning from early chapter books to more complex narratives. The stories subtly encourage problem-solving and creative thinking as characters must outsmart magical obstacles using wit rather than force. Young readers who enjoy puzzle-solving adventures, magical realism, and stories about found families will find themselves completely absorbed in this world. The series leaves children with that wonderful feeling that magic might be hiding just beyond their own doorstep, waiting to be discovered.
