Today is my stop on the blog tour for Toby and the Silver Blood Witches. This fun MG adventure has plenty of heart and magical mayhem!
When young carer, Toby, hears a strange noise coming from his attic, the last thing he expects to find hidden among his old toys is a witch! Witch Bumble needs Toby's help - she's crashed her broom, lost her wand, and her niece, Skylark, has been captured. But between looking after his mum and facing the school bullies, Toby has enough to deal with without being caught up in a magical rescue mission. He doesn't even have time for football any more, let alone broomstick flying. But Toby soon realises that some challenges are too important to say no to, no matter the risks.
Young readers will delight in this novel's fun world building and magic.
Toby is a relatable protagonist and I loved how he responds to the increasingly strange situations he finds himself in - from searching through his garden for a wand, to visiting a witch village hidden in a bubble! This book was a lot of fun to read and I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next in Toby and the Wizards of Wildhaven.
