The air felt dense with magic, even more than in the spell garden back home. And not in a good way . . . When Alyssa accidentally transports herself, her cousins, and Leon to the Jamaican spell garden, Golden Falls, they must work out a way back home before the end of the summer holidays and the all-important Bloom Trials. But the magical plants are inexplicably hostile, and they will need to win the garden over. Can they connect to the ancient magic of the forest? And when the very essence of the garden is threatened, will their magic be enough to protect it? Illustrated by Bex Glendining. Praise for Alyssa and the Spell Garden: 'Enchanting and heart-lifting.' Sophie Anderson 'Bursts with glimmering magic.' Jasbinder Bilan 'Funny, heartfelt and packed full of magic.' Abi Elphinstone 'Spellbinding.' Kieran Larwood 'Utterly charming.' Lizzie Huxley-Jones 'The perfect mix of heart and magic.' Rachel Faturoti
