This is the first in an absolutely wonderful series for all young book lovers.

Eleven year old Tilly has lived above her grandparents bookshop ever since her mother disappeared. She likes nothing better than to escape into a good book.

One day she discovers a magical ability to follow the characters into their worlds. With the help of Anne of Green Gables and Alice in Wonderland Tilly is determined to solve the mystery of her mother's disappearance all those years ago.

She bravely steps into the book worlds not knowing what dangers she might come across.

This is a delightful and heart-warming series. As a bookseller I would love to work in Tilly's grandparents shop.

It beautifully reinforces the message about the importance of bookshops and the special relationship that you can develop with a book and it's characters.

There are two more books in the series and I guarantee once you've read this you won't want to wait for Tilly's next adventure.
