The Magic Word


“I’ll have to write these letters on my own, unless I find the right magic words.”

Catriona loves getting presents, but isn’t so keen on writing thank you letters, so she tries a magic way of writing her name fast. But it doesn’t turn out the way she expected! I had fun writing this book, and even more fun working with Claire Keay’s wonderful pictures of Catriona’s chaotic, colourful and scribbly attempts to create magical thank you letters.
