Magical Mea

 

 "Magical Mea" is the second book in The Magical  Series, written by the award winning author, Penelope Anne Cole.  Mea is Magical Matthew’s sister, but similarities between the two end pretty much there. Mea and her brother have very different ideas about why, when, and how magic should be performed. 

Matthew and his friend Lily go in search of his little sister Mea for fear of what trouble she may get herself into next.  Mea is unconcerned about her brother and is intent on causing a little mischief, just for the fun of it.  She takes a bus ride, plays in the park, pulls a prank on some boys, and a mom and her baby; all the while, Matthew and Lily are on her trail trying to catch up with her before she does something drastic. 

Matthew has always used his magic for good, but Mea has other ideas.  She finds delight in stumping others with her trickery.  In the end Mea finds the true joy in helping others.  She realizes the only reward she needs for her magic is how people are helped by her instinctive talents.  This second book in The Magical Series has life lessons for children.  It’s a fun read, empowering for kids, and will without a doubt hold a child’s interest.

Kevin Collier has brought the book to life with his vivid and attractive illustrations that are sure to delight any young reader.  I give Magical Mea five stars *****and a lollipop!

Flip Flap Floodle

This is a tale about Flip; a little yellow fellow who has a musical talent and a never ending energy that keeps him believing in himself.  While a devious act is committed against Flip, in spite of his demise, he never loses hope. 

His Mother, who fears for his safety, gives the villain a well deserved thrashing.  But, the real empowerment of the story is Flip, who never loses faith in his special talent, or in himself. 

This cute, quirky, and a little bit scary story, has some nurturing life lessons for children.  It shows friendship, faith, love and entertainment among its pages.  I give Flip Flap Floodle, written and illustrated by Joan Y. Edwards, 5 ***** stars for bright engaging illustrations, and content that is sure to amuse young children.
