Maddy Kettle
Description
The Thimblewitch turned Maddy's parents into kangaroo rats, and now they are gone. Maddy and her pet flying toad set out to find the witch and rescue Maddy's parents. Book #1
Quick Summary
Maddy Kettle's quest to turn her parents back from a kangaroo-rat spell, aided by a talking flying toad, is as wacky as it is heartfelt. Kids will love the slapstick moments, the toad's sarcastic quips, and the fast-paced chase scenes that keep the story humming. If your kid likes the mischief of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" combined with the fantastical quests of "The Magic Tree House", they'll devour this. Perfect for readers aged 7 to 10, especially those in grades 2 through 4 who enjoy short, illustrated chapter books with big personalities.
