Missing Magic by Kallie George-ADVISABLE



George, Kallie, ill. by Alexandra Bolger. Missing Magic(Magical Animal Adoption Agency, #3). pgs. 139. Disney Hyperion, 2016. $14.99. Language: G, Mature Content; G, Violence: G

When Mr. Jams leaves the agency to go help a friend, Clover and Olive van Hoof, the new guy, are left in charge. The problem is neither one can agree with how to run the agency and take care of the animals. As magic starts leaving the magical animals in the agency, however, the two must put their differences aside to figure out how to save the animals and the agency. Will they succeed?

The illustrations in this book are detailed and eye-catching. The descriptions in the book are fun and easy to get wrapped up in. The plot is simple, but engaging. The characters are well-developed and likable for an early chapter book. Fans of magic, adventure, mythology, and fantasy will enjoy reading this book. Although you can read it out of order, it is recommended that you read the first 2 in the series first. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Kira M, Youth Services Librarian, WHI Public Library.
