What a fantastically gripping middle-grade story about a young boy and his exploits in a beautiful, enchanted garden. The story was full of mystery and magic, with just enough suspense to keep me on the edge of my seat. I could easily visualise George's garden and his many friends he made there. I loved his relationship with Aunt Di, and the evil witch certainly made me shiver! A great story and an enjoyable read. I think this has the makings of an exciting series.Mary Anne Yarde, author of The Du Lac Chronicles.
I really liked this book because there were lots of amazing characters, and I also liked that there was a unicorn. I always wanted to read more and more every night because it was very exciting. I hope that Angeline writes another book so that I can find out more about the characters and the story. George, aged 8
My son loved this book, and it was a pleasure to read it to him. I also thoroughly enjoyed it myself, so it would be suitable for older kids too. The characters are enchanting (literally), and the story fascinating. I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for the sequel. George's mum, Jen
I want to read the next one. William, aged 11
I loved the evil witch the best. Mary aged 10
