Twins Peter and Samantha, who likes to be called Sammi, have just moved into their new house and are amazed to find a door in the large maple tree at the bottom of their garden. On entering the door, they find an underground river and a mouse in a dingy who has been instructed to row them to Fairyland, beginning An Adventure in Fairyland. There they are asked to help regain the fairy queen’s wand that has been stolen by the magician Malicio. To help them retrieve the wand in safety, the queen gives them a potion that makes them invisible to everyone but each other. On their adventure, they meet a host of magic characters and are also able to rescue a pixie and a gnome, two prisoners of Malicio. As a reward, the queen gives the twins a magic stone that will enable them to return to Fairyland in the future. What other adventures await the twins? Joy Bloumis of Melbourne, Australia, was an English teacher for 30 years. After retiring, she decided to write a fairy tale based on the many stories she told her grandchildren. Because they were fascinated by fairies, pixies, elves, gnomes, wizards, and witches, she included them all in her first book. Publisher’s website: http: //sbpra.com/JoyBloumis
