Mirabelle Gets up to Mischief: Volume 1

Product Information

Far from Scallop City they discover a glimmering coral reef. And nestled in the reef are three little shimmering sea sprites . . . Where she is feared and disgraced in Wiskling Wood, she is adored and revered in the human world. But the net is closing in. There are wisklings who would like to end Victoria Stitch’s famous reign in the human world for good.

Half witch, half fairy, totally naughty! Mirabelle is Isadora Moon’s cousin, who we first meet in Isadora Moon Gets in Trouble. When her mum and dad come along on a school trip to the ballet, Isadora worries that they might not be like normal mums and dads. But she has even bigger problems when Pink Rabbit goes missing. Will she be able to find him before the curtain rises? Half vampire, half fairy, totally unique! Isadora Moon is special because she is different. Her mum is a fairy and her dad is a vampire and Isadora is a bit of both. So when they all go camping at the seaside some things might happen that are not quite normal . . . Just as impressive is the elegant splendour of the beautifully furnished dining room itself, which you can enter either directly from the hotel or via its own discreet side entrance, and is a quiet haven that attracts romantic couples, small business groups and devotees of gourmet dining.And while she’s there, Isadora and Zoe are going to work on their cake for a baking competition at school. But will they be able to resist adding a sprinkling of magic to their creation. . . ? It’s almost time for the vampire ball, and Isadora can’t wait! There’s just one problem: she’s got to compete in a talent show with the other vampire children. Isadora’s talents aren’t very vampire-y, what if the audience laugh at her? The show must go on, but will Isadora be brave enough to perform. . . ?

But being good all the time is really tiring. And a little bit of mess leads to a little bit of secret witch magic, which leads to even more mess, and even more magic, until everything is in total chaos! Can Mirabelle get the mayhem under control before Granny finds out? Will Mirabelle’s family believe that Mirabelle is (mostly) innocent this time or is it just a case of double the trouble? Fun fact: when Harriet was at university in 2010, she created a picture book for her final project all about Victoria Stitch. She recreated a new version of that original picture book as a bonus at the end of Victoria Stitch: Free and Famous! Bursting with 50 more winter activities, including puzzles, colouring-in and memory games, for hours of spellbinding fun! In addition to her work as an author and illustrator, Harriet is also a keen collector of vintage dolls and toys, and her collection often inspires her artwork. She also enjoys baking and gardening, and she draws inspiration from the natural world around her.Based on the world of Isadora Moon, everyone’s favourite half fairy, half vampire – perfect for those who enjoy their magic and sparkle with a bite! Fun fact: This is the first time that Emerald, Isadora Moon and Mirabelle all appear together in the same book!
