1-3Magic Animal Rescue series.
Illustrated by
Lisa Manuzak.
Since Maggie's mean stepmother kicked her out, the eight-year-old lives with stableman Bob and his wife in their magical stables, where she helps with injured Enchanted Forest animals. As Maggie learns about flying pigs, unicorns, and other creatures, she makes observations in her notebook. With a fairy-tale feel, these illustrated chapter books (third and fourth in the series) will appeal to magic lovers not quite ready for Baker's many popular middle-grade series. Review covers these Magic Animal Rescue titles: Maggie and the Flying Pigs and Maggie and the Unicorn.
