Description

Book Synopsis

Edith was born at a time of magic and fairies. As a newborn she received two gifts: the ability to bring any object to life and eternal childhood. That's why today, 100 years later, Edith is celebrating her centenary as a ten-year-old. What will she wish for this time? Perhaps a new friend. Certainly a new life--being ten forever has its downside.

On her birthday, Edith sets off to find the fairy who bewitched her and reverse the spell. She takes her only friends, a wise dog and a talking lemon, to find herself a future she can live with.

Fully illustrated in color, this one-of-a-kind chapter book bursts with good things: the dry wit of a faithful dog, a fairytale adventure, camping, boating, friendship and danger, and a question that matters.

"Delightfully quirky in nature, young readers who join the adventures will enjoy brief chapters with unexpected characters, clever artwork, and interesting interactions. Written and illustrated by Dutch-born children's author Valckx and sweetly translated by Shugaar, it is an unusual read as well as a great conversation starter."--Booklist
