Full Description
Beautifully illustrated, and full of warmth, wit and joyful witchy magic - this utterly charming new graphic novel series is sure to bring you under its spell, and is perfect for fans of Kiki's Delivery Service, Witches of Brooklyn, and cosy, funny fantasy like The Hatmakers.
Ever since their mum died, free-spirit Elfie and her teen sister, Magda, have been stuck living with their extremely grumpy aunt in boring suburbia.
That is until their older sister, Louette, arrives to rescue them in her London bus-come-travelling-bookshop, and whisks them away to freedom, and adventures travelling around France!
Elfie is delighted to be reunited with all her sisters - especially when Louette reveals that their mother left them all special gifts. Elfie's is a notebook, which she fills with stories - just like her mum used to do.
Only it turns out, the notebook isn't a notebook. It's a grimoire - a witch's spellbook! And when Elfie writes her stories in it, magic come to life . . .
Now Elfie must work out how to use her magic for good - and help solve a mystery which has torn a small village in Northern France apart.
In Elfie's second adventure, Elfie, Louette and Magda arrive in their book-bus in Gonerbes, a sun-baked village in Provence. They are visiting Alistair Kinloch, a writer who was once a friend of their mother. But Alistair can no longer write. His typewriter has been stolen, and with it, his inspiration.
Now it's up to Elfie to investigate! Who would want to harm Alistair, and why? At least Elfie can to count on the help of a little bit of magic, thanks to her helpful grimoire...
Full of joy, mischief, family and friendships - as well as magic, of course - Elfie's adventures are sure to cast a spell on all her readers!
