Synopsis

Inside the Magic is the third in a series of light fantasy chapter books set in Morgantown, a town on the border between the real world and the magical world, by the authors of the Publishers Weekly best selling BAILEY SCHOOL KIDS―a series of 50 books with more than 30 million copies sold!

Oh, no! Mr. Leery has been kidnapped by the evil Queen of the Boggarts. It's up to the apprentice Keyholders Penny, Luke, and Natalie to rescue him. Together with their links, a unicorn named Kirin, a dragon named Dracula, and a rat named Buttercup, the three Keyholders cross the border to the land inside the magic―a place where anything can happen. Will they find Mr. Leery in time?

About this title

About the Author:

MARCIA THORNTON JONES was a teacher and DEBBIE DADEY was a school librarian when they met over lunch to create their bestselling series, The Adventures of the Baily School Kids. Since then, Debbie and Marcia have collaborated on more than 125 books with sales of over forty million copies. Their books include the Keyholders series, beginning with This Side of Magic. Marcia lives in Lexington, Kentucky with her husband, Stephen, and their two cats. Debbie lives in Bucks County, Pennsylvania with her husband, three dogs, and three children.

From Booklist:

Books in the Keyholders fantasy series begin with two maps, one showing the seaside community of Morgantown, and the other, the Shadow Realm, inhabited by goblins, elves, and trolls and ruled by the wicked Boggart Queen. In Book 3, the children, accompanied by their magical consorts (a unicorn, a dragon, and a rat), cross the border in a brave attempt to rescue their friend, Mr. Leery. While fantasy fans will find the story predictable, younger readers may find this nicely illustrated adventure accessible and appealing. Volume 4, The Wrong Side of Magic (9780765359858), is also available. Grades 2-5. --Carolyn Phelan
