Get ready for more magic, mayhem, and
monstruos! From Claribel A. Ortega, author of Frizzy and Ghost Squad, comes the
sequel to the instant New York Times bestselling and #1 Indie bestselling
Witchlings.
Every four years, the Twelve Towns
gather for a legendary magical tournament--the Golden Frog Games.
With Ravenskill hosting this year's
games, all eyes are on Seven Salazar, Valley Pepperhorn and Thorn Laroux: the
most famous Spares in the Twelve Towns. Thorn is ready to compete as a fashion
champion, but when a forbidden hex is used to turn her fellow champions to
stone, suspicion lands on the Witchlings.
As the Witchlings attempt to unravel
the mystery of the stonifications, future Uncle Seven is harboring a dangerous
secret: While she's supposed to be able to communicate with animals, the voices
she hears most clearly belong to monstruos, and one spine-chilling voice is the
loudest of all.
Can Seven fix her broken magic and
find out who is stonifying the champions . . . before Thorn becomes the next
victim?
Claribel talks about THE GOLDEN FROG GAMES
My thoughts...
I'm about halfway through this enchanting and imaginative middle-grade novel. It has such a fun tone, with likable characters I'd love to be friends with. There's mystery, danger, magic, and champions turned to stone! I always enjoy stories where the underdogs save the day. I'm rooting for Seven and her friends to unravel who is behind this mystery, and I'm so very curious to learn more about the monstrous.
I haven't read the first book in the Witchling series, and while it took me a little bit to learn all the characters, there is enough backstory for a reader to thoroughly enjoy this book without reading the first. But do yourself a favor, and grab Witchlings book one first, so that you or the young reader in your life can spend even more time in this magical world.
