This is a great read for children and adults alike. Amelie will pick up from where Harry Potter left off. Unlike Harry and his wizard friends who are seen as special and different to us ordinary mortals, Amelie is herself an ordinary girl who will inspire children to believe they have the magic within themselves to do anything, even to change the world. I have no doubt that Amelie is going to be extremely popular and successful. Make sure you join the adventure from the start as this is going to be huge and deservedly so! -- KEITH FORREST: AUTHOR OF THE SPIRITUAL FRUITCAKE
Why Amelie Trott is the most important book of the year... A truly wonderful and inspirational piece of work. Beautifully written and so carefully and intricately put together, terrific characters and sometimes laugh out loud funny too! (Jeremy Loudly said quietly!).

What we call fantasy often lives right at the edge of reality. Authors who write books for young people know this, and the best of them know how to write for young people of all ages. Moyra Irving is such an author. She knows how to create an engaging narrative grounded in reality, blended with the right amount of enchantment and the kind of unlikely surprises that nonetheless end up seeming inevitable. With well-drawn, likeable and believable characters and with a knowing eye for the foibles of human behavior, Irving has created a story that will keep the reader turning pages in anticipation of whats to come. What emerges is a tale of danger, humor, sweetness and solace impressive in its execution and heartening in its gently voiced wisdom. As one gets to know Irvings characters, one hopes that this absolutely charming first volume will lead to more. As it does, this overgrown teenager will be very pleased to go along for the ride. - - Marc Gregory: Writer and English teacher , Los Angeles, USA
Begone, Anne of Green Gables and Jane Eyre! A new heroine has stolen this readers heart: the plucky, irrepressible, syntax-mangling Amelie Trott. In her enchanting debut childrens novel, Moyra Irving has created a gem of a main character and set her in a wildly inventive setting. Irving keeps a lot of plates spinning plot wise, and triumphantly makes it to the end without a single crash. Youll fall in love with Amelie, her brother and their new best friend Isla from the U.S., as they careen from (mis)adventure to (mis)adventure in a never-say-die attempt to save the planet. The heroes are heroic, the villains are villainy and the wit and humor are contagious. Would-be writer Amelie dreams of being a first-rate writer; Moyra Irving brilliantly shows how its done. -- Burt Kempner, childrens author
