Tired of the Gargoyles destroying their homes, the Fairies of Fairy Glen ask the bumbling Wizard McShoogle for help. Armed with a potion and a few jumbled words, they banish the Gargoyles until the moon turns blue. And what's the chance of that happening? Present day - Ben age 7 and Megan age 9 think the moon looks blue! When their grandmother unexpectedly arrives in Aberdeen they discover she's a Witch. Can they stop Russel and his ghastly Gargoyles taking over Aberdeen - before the moon is full?

  



Professional Reviews

WILLOW
My children loved reading this book. Set in the past, the present and that magical bit in between. Lovely to see that everyone gets the opportunity to be the hero/heroine in this book. And love that witches and wizards are gender neutral.
The smattering of Doric may be confusing to those who don't understand the tongue, but it did not detract from the book. In fact, it enriched the passages. As did the dotted, reference to days gone bye. I fondly remember the Coulter's Candy and Bee Baw Babbity. It brought back memories.
Scottish or not, it is a book that can be enjoyed by all the family no matter what your age.


Lilly Langstane
My two children loved this book.
Their dad is from Aberdeen and the writer brought the language and the feel of the city right into out home.
Fabulous bedtime read. I'm not going to give the plot away but I do hope there is a follow on book. Well worth a read.


Megan
A cuddle in a tartan shawl.
The plot was exciting, believable and satisfying. My daughter loved it.
Read the book.
