Author Abi Elphinstone joins The Book Fairies to share new book Saving Neverland!

Abi became a Book Fairy for a Day in Edinburgh to magically hide copies!

“It’s time to believe in magic, Martha Pennydrop.”

The Book Fairies were joined by author Abi Elphinstone in Edinburgh this week to celebrate the release of her new adventure book for children! Her latest book is Saving Neverland and she donned her book fairy wings to hide SIGNED copies around the National Museum of Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

About the book:

Number 14 Darlington Road, looks like a perfectly ordinary townhouse – at first glance, anyway, but magic is good at hiding… when it’s waiting for the right person to discover it…

Martha Pennydrop is ten, and desperate to grow up. But growing up is a tricky business. It means turning your back on imagination, fun and magic, because those were the things that led to the Terrible Day when something awful nearly happened to Martha’s younger brother, Scruff, which would have been All Her Fault.

But when Martha and Scruff discover a drawer full of mysterious gold dust in the bedroom of their new house – along with a window that’s seemingly impossible to close – it’s the start of an incredible adventure to a magical world: Neverland! The Pennydrop’s new house used to belong to another family – the Darlings – who once visited this world themselves. Now Peter Pan is back, and in need of their help. Neverland is in the icy grip of a terrible curse – cast long ago by Captain Hook. And only Martha and Scruff can save it…

Found on Friday in a park near Wembley Central! My family is lucky: it is our third Bookfairies’ find in 3 years! Being an author myself, I especially cherish the magic of those surprise finds! Thank you
