Product Description

Book Description

A magical story of time travel, treasure and twins.

Product Description

Miri has a few problems:

- She's the middle child, stuck between two sets of twins.

- She's been sent to her room for smacking one of her brothers over the head with a shovel.

- Her room has the ugliest wallpaper in the world.

But when Miri sees a little piece of glass taped to her bedroom wall and decides to take a peek through it, she finds she has a much bigger problem to deal with . . . Suddenly, she's not in her bedroom anymore. Instead, she's face to face with Molly, a girl who insists that the room is hers, that the year is 1935, and that Miri has come to save her.

Undaunted by the barest of clues, the meanest of cousins and the mystery of time itself, Miri and Molly find that magic is really just a way of setting things right.

The magic half 12 Feb 2012
By V.M
Format:Kindle Edition
This book is very imaginative and fun to read. Young readers between 9-13 would enjoy this book especially if they like magical books that are fairly short

Terrific book, but know your child. 28 July 2008
By amyc@maine.rr.com - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
My daughter and I have truly enjoyed this richly drawn tale. It is suspenseful and engaging. We picked this up because my daughter has enjoyed Annie Barrow's Ivy and Bean series. There is not a recommended age range on the book. I caution that there is a very real element of a child in peril in this book, and the possibility that someone killed this child. If you have a sensitive child or a child reading above grade level, I suggest that you preview this book first. It is an enjoyable read, and you will know if your child is able to handle the subject matter.

An exciting page turner! 3 April 2008
By E. A. Carroll - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The Magic Half was recommended to me by Jeanne Birdsall the author of The Penderwicks (another terrific read for this age group) and I was not disappointed. My 10 year old daughter and I read it together. It was wonderful. Miri is quite a likable main character. She is adventurous and a strong thinker - my daughter was trying to figure out each step along with Miri throughout the book. We got so involved in the story that my daughter begged to finish it one morning after breakfast - we read over 50 pages that morning in order to find out the magical ending. This was a joy! My daughter could easily have read it on her own and I am so glad she chose it as one for us to read together!

my 8 year old loved it 3 Feb 2009
By D. Gotz - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
My 8 year old LOVED this book, read it in a few days. She is an avid Harry Potter fan and resists reading anything else...except this...
She said it was exciting, and full of suspense and danger...she was also caught laughing out loud several times.
