Seven-Day Magic: 7 (Tales of Magic, 7) - Softcover

"Luckily for Edward Eager's fans, the children in his latest book are just as lively and literary as those in Half Magic. . . . Mr. Eager's seventh book . . . proves that his pen works magic with just about any number." --New York Times Book Review

"It's hard for any book with magic in it not to pale next to the Harry Potter phenomenon. However, Seven-Day Magic can just about stoop to the challenge . . . . Has a timeless feel." --Children's Literature

All books are magic, but some are more magical than others.
     When Susan opens a strange library book, she discovers it is about her and her friends, leading up to the moment when she opened the book. Beyond that, the pages are blank . . . waiting for the children to wish the book full of adventures.
     Fredericka asks for wizards and beasties, and a dragon carries her off. Susan journeys to the world of Half Magic, and finds that mixing magic creates trouble—far too much to deal with before the book is due back at the library.
     Wishing, it seems, is a tricky business. And if the children make the wrong wish, their adventure won't end, as all stories must, happily ever after.
