Magic Molly: Book One The Mirror Maze" by Trevor Forest is the charming story of a young witch and her adventures. When Molly's mother and father disappear after a magic trick they are performing goes wrong, Molly is given an opportunity to become a witch a year ahead of her tenth birthday. They have gone into a void where failed magic tricks go, but there are glimpses that they are still alive. When a mysterious wizard gives Molly the chance to become a witch and gain magical powers, she takes that chance even though she is told she only has twelve hours to find her parents and bring them back. If she fails she might never see them again. Along the way to receiving her powers, she gets to choose a fashionable, nontraditional, bright-yellow witch's outfit complete with slightly bent witch's hat. Instead of choosing a reliable, but snooty, French wand, she chooses the slightly faulty Wonky wand. Molly's choices are really quite unique at every step of the story. Will Molly be able to make her way through the maze with Wonky's help and save her parents in time? Will her memory-challenged grandmother ever remember her name and stop calling her Millie? Will snooty Henrietta Havelots who has bought her way into the witch's academy get her comeuppance?
Written in a very engaging style with sparkling humor and a huge dose of imagination, "Magic Molly: Book One The Mirror Maze" by Trevor Forest tells us how a young girl comes into her own as a full-fledged witch. Our young heroine is empowered to take action to get her parents back. Witches and wizards have been a popular topic in children's literature since the advent of Harry Potter. Rather than offer a formulaic approach, this great book is filled with well-thought-out, engaging characters, and surprising plot twists. This is a wonderfully written page-turning story that kids will love. They'll look forward with anticipation for the next book in the 'Magic Molly' series since the book ends on a cliffhanger. I'm looking forward to reading the next book too!
