Just Add Magic (1)

This book was so much fun for my 9 year old girl and all her friends. I purchased 12 books, my daughter gave them to her friends as gifts, and we started a book club for the young readers. We set a completion date and each girl read at her own pace, culminating with a BOOK CLUB PARTY at our home. We served LOVE BUG JUICE and other fun foods from the listed recipes in the book. Author Cindy Callaghan had a comprehensive discussion section on her website which assisted the mothers in guiding the book club discussion at the party. It got a group of little girls excited to read, and began to teach them the joy of discussing good books with their friends, sharing viewpoints and talking about character development. JUST ADD MAGIC was well - written and kept the girls excited to read each coming chapter. The characters are lively and interesting, keeping the reader engaged and eager to know what is going to happen to them next. The girls are now in the midst of reading LOST IN LONDON, and the 2nd book club party is set for Mid November.

This is a well-written and engaging story about three seventh-grader girls who find a magic cookbook. It is a perfect book for fifth- and sixth-grade students. This book is also the basis of the Amazon TV series "Just Add Magic." If you like the book, then the Amazon series (which has had two seasons already) is a fun view. The series Amazon is very well-written and adds many plot lines and details not present in the Cindy Callaghan book.

The girls have seen the tv / video series - all seasons and really got into it. When we told them there were books and BOOKS, in our opinion are always better because your imagination paints the scenes as you read, they asked their Mama for them and as grandparent ofcourse we ordered them for them. Our daughter-in-law said they devoured them.

Really cute book, however this chapter book might be a little difficult for my 2nd grader, not only keeping her interest, but she would need assistance with reading it. In fairness my niece who is also in the 2nd grade, would have zero difficulty in reading it.

We watched the series first on Amazon and thought how cute would that be as a book series. Well lo and behold it was a book (wish it were a series) I bought the book for my 7 year old daughter and I ended up reading it as well. It has a similar theme as the TV series, but enough differences that it is not a spoiler. Really enjoyed the book and ordered some more books for my daughter by Callaghan

My daughter loved this book. As a parent, I found it very fun to read with her. It was very wholesome and fun story. My daughter (9) enjoyed the bits of humor thrown in throughout the book. There is a show based on this book that my daughter also enjoyed.

A really great book. Read with my daughter. Very good story. Wholesome, educational, exciting! We totally loved it! Wish there was more chapters, or books in this series.

I bought theses for my daughters and sadly the first one came with a bent cover page 😕 And the second one came with small rips 😥 love the books just disappointing about the covers

Es para mi nieta que está iniciando a leer en inglés

Perfect

アマゾンプライムでドラマを見てハマった、インター幼稚園を卒園した小3が読む為に買いました。 字が思ったよりも小さく、娘には難しかったです。 英検2級前後のレベルかなと思います。

it was in one: fantastic! it was a bit slow but it was relaxing, enjoyable and super funny! I invited everyone to read it and go in a wonderful world of magic!

Definitely different than the show but still a great read! My daughter is hooked. Very nice cover
