''Life if Magic'' has gone down extremely well in my household for all ages, the book just oozes quality. The addition of a magic trick on the inside jacket just attests to this. This is a book that feels like a lot of time, attention and love have gone into its creation. McLaren should be commended on her work as it will be a magical book for many children.
Other recent books that have managed to excel include [[Nibbles: The Book Monster by Emma Yarlett]] and [[Excavate! Dinosaurs: Paper Toy Paleontology by Jonathan Tennant, Vladamir Nikolov and Charlie Simpson]]. You might also appreciate [[Wolf Hollow by Lauren Wolk]]. We also have a review of [[Pigeon P.I. by Meg McLaren]].
