Publisher's Summary

A magic mirror enables Sebastian to travel from his Victorian world of winter snow and Mrs Parkin to a magic world of Melissa, Mantari, and wicked Enchanter and many other exciting people.

This wonderful audiobook follows in the great tradition of the E. Nesbit magic books. Since its first publication in 1969 it has proved its appeal to children of every age.

Long out of print until republished by Fidra Books in the UK and Purple House Press in the USA, it received praise from respected children's authors.

The sequel to this book is called The House Called Hadlows.

An Old Favourite

I've loved this book for years and it was fun to revisit it as an audio book. The narrator does a great job and I went looking for other books she'd narrated. For those who haven't read it, this is a Victorian-age fantasy, but written much later. A lonely boy and a girl in an enchanted castle solve a mystery. It has some lovely set pieces.
