Illustrated by
Donovan Bixley.
The ability to speak every world language makes nine-year-old Maddy quite valuable as a translator for an evil witch posing as linguist Professor Coateloch. On a wild, perilous journey Maddy outwits her enemy with help from fellow captives--a ninja, a Bulgarian wrestler, and a mischievous monkey. Magic, adventure, and intrigue combine for an entertaining fantasy. Full-page black-and-white illustrations appear in neat frames.
