The Mulberry Mansion harbors more than one peculiar mystery. Vintage circus freak decor, oddly decorated bed chambers, and sensational sandwiches are just the beginning of the phenomena. Deep within the attic, twelve-year-old Cloette and her brother, Rocco, discover a twisted glowing blanket fort magically hovering, luring them to enter. From within, they uncover the "Ticklish Tome", an enchanted ticklish book that sucks them away into the eerie realm of Neverwood.

The remarkable land is under an unusual incantation from the wildly wicked Wretched Harridan and is in need of help only the siblings can provide. But the reluctant heroes doubt their abilities to help against such a devilish fearsome foe. With their one chance to break the spell quickly approaching, the race against time is quickly vanishing.

Will Cloette and Rocco discover their own powers in order to save the enchanted realm of Neverwood?

Can they rescue Prism, the most magical dark unicorn in existence?

Will they have any hope of ever returning home?

Will they ever taste sensational sandwiches ever again?

Review

What a wonderful, intriguing story for middle grade readers. The character development was evolving throughout and the story developed onto a different path than I expected.

You know a good story has you hooked when you're thinking about the characters during your every day life.

The ending is satisfying -but leaves enough open to have you wanting more.
