“If everyone in your car loves it (as they undoubtedly will), there are two more books in the series”
A charming tale about a girl whose particular set of magical skills don’t align with her family’s or friends’ expectations, Upside-Down Magic is a lighthearted and accessible way to address tricky issues that all kids inevitably face. At three hours long, this is perfect for a shorter trip, but good news: if everyone in your car loves it (as they undoubtedly will), there are two more books in the series.

Midnight Gulch used to be a magical place, a town where people could sing up thunderstorms and dance up sunflowers. But that was long ago, before a curse drove the magic away. Twelve-year-old Felicity knows all about things like that; her nomadic mother is cursed with a wandering heart. But when she arrives in Midnight Gulch, Felicity thinks her luck's about to change. A "word collector", Felicity sees words everywhere - shining above strangers, tucked into church eaves, and tangled up her dog's floppy ears - but Midnight Gulch is the first place she's ever seen the word "home".
