The Marvelous Magic of Miss Mabel (Poppy Pendle)

The Marvelous Magic of Miss Mabel (Poppy Pendle)

Penderwicks meets Edward Eager in this moving story â€œthat will remind readers of Roald Dahlâ€™s Matildaâ€ (School Library Journal) about a young witch found in a flowerpot who embarks on a journey to discover her roots.

The morning Nora Ratcliff finds a baby in the flowerpot on her front steps her life changes forever. She had always wanted a child, but after her husband passed away, Nora never thought it would be possible. She decides to name her miracle flowerpot child Mabel, and as Mabel grew up, she showed a distinct talent for magic.

When Mabel is accepted to the prestigious witch school, Ruthersfield Academy, she excels at the curriculum, especially magic, but is constantly in trouble for experimenting and inventing her own potions. One day she is asked to write a paper on the origin of her magical roots and discovers the truth about her birth after a mean classmate blurts out what everyone seems to knowâ€”except Mabel. Mabel is shocked but the revelation does explain a lot. In an act of rebellion, Mabel changes her name to Magnolia and sets out to learn why she was left in the flowerpot and who her birth family might be.

Will Mabel find the answers sheâ€™s looking forâ€”or will she discover that families are people who love and look out for each otherâ€”and thatâ€™s most important of all.
