Poppet (Paperback)

Paperback. One windy day, Lucy Pellegrave finds herself whisked away to far-off Callwitch Castle on the other side of the world. Trapped there in its impossible maze of passageways, she must now try to find the ingredients to an ancient spell. Her companion, a grumpy young boy named Lawrence, assures her this is what needs to happen for both of them to escape. To find these ingredients, she will have to go face to face with the eccentric and magical inhabitants of Callwitch Castle. Faced with dragons, trolls, monsters and more, Lucy must constantly stay one step ahead of the keeper of the castle; the impossibly tall, inhuman, terrifying monster known as Nanny. Lucy has three days to solve the mystery of Callwitch Castle and learn why she was chosen above all others. If she can't, then Nanny will claim her forever. With the help of some new friends and even the castle itself, Lucy will find a courage she never knew she had, and discover the most powerful magic in the world isn't as mysterious as it seems. Poppet is a children's fantasy adventure that features monsters, myths, danger, excitement, mystery, and an overall focus on what it is to be brave. It's not a story about being fearless, it's about finding your courage in the face of fear. Lucy isn't a warrior; she's just a little girl. Even so, she is about to become the greatest hero Callwitch Castle has ever known. This item is printed on demand.
