![]() ![]() Enjoy all seven of the middle grade novels in Edward Eagers beloved Tales of Magic series! Review Quotes Half Magic is a funny, charming, timeless book, as much a pleasure to read to a child now as it was forty years ago. For fans of such favorite series as The Penderwicks and The Vanderbeekers. What is half of twice a talking cat? Or to be half-again twice not-here? And how do you double your most heartfelt wish, the one you care about so much it has to be perfect? This funny and gentle classic series is an enjoyable read-aloud and also a strong choice for independent reading. Wishing for two times some things is a cinch, but other doubled wishes only cause twice as much trouble. It turns out the coin grants wishes-but only by half, so that you must wish for twice as much as you want. Jane finds the coin, and because she and her siblings are having the worst, most dreadfully boring summer ever, she idly wishes something exciting would happen. ![]() It all begins with a strange coin on a sun-warmed sidewalk.
