There are some people in this world who are a little more aware, a little more in tune with whatâs happening around them. Isabelle Bean is one of those people, and when she sits in her regular, average classroom, listening to an odd buzzing sound and feeling as if she is teetering on the edge of the universe...she is not too far from the truth.
Like Alice falling through the looking glass, Isabelle soon finds herself in a parallel universe, where sheâs mistaken for a witch, then finds out that her grandmother is a witch, then finds out she isnât, but no one believes her, which is the whole reason Isabelle has tumbled into this worldâto straighten everyone out on the witch and non-witch business. Oh, and to find a true friend. Dowellâs fantasy debut is, yes indeed, entrancing.
