Inhaltsangabe

Family magic saves the day for best-friend-cousins Del and Alma in the third Hand-Me-Down Magic book. With adorable illustrations and short, easy-to-read chapters, this illustrated chapter book series is perfect for fans of Ivy & Bean and Dory Fantasmagory.

Alma knew it the first time she saw it: The patchwork purse in the window of the Curious Cousins Secondhand Shoppe was magical. Special. Perfect. But when her friend Cassie spots the purse and buys it, what could Alma do but agree that the purse really did look just right on Cassie?

Del decides it’s up to her to bring some homespun magic back into Alma’s life, and she’s got just the plan for some creative problem solving. After all, she is the EXPERT on magic!

All she needs is some glitter and lots and lots of glue . . . because in this charming book about friendship, she knows magic can always come from the most unexpected places, but most importantly, that best-friend-cousins never let each other down.

Corey Ann Haydu’s writing is filled with tender moments, wholesome humor, and magical detail―reminiscent of literary icons like Beverly Clearly, Marla Frazee, and Katherine Applegate. This chapter book series is pitch perfect for kids reading at this young level. And Luisa Uribe's stunning black-and-white illustrations capture the warmth and unique personality of each character.

• Hand-Me-Down Magic #1: Stoop Sale Treasure
• Hand-Me-Down Magic #2: Crystal Ball Fortunes
