Marigold Star is destined for greatness. Everyone in Bramblycrumbly thinks so, from her parents to her pet dragon, Lightning. There’s just one problem. Marigold can’t do magic! (She can barely keep track of her magic wand.)
Then one day, Marigold tries a new spell she finds in a very old book. It’s called the Invis-o-friend Spell, and it’s supposed to make Marigold invisible to all but the friend who needs her most. To Marigold’s surprise, the spell actually works! But more surprising still: it sends her to the human world. Now there’s another problem. To reverse the spell and get back home to Bramblycrumbly, Marigold will have to befriend a host of human children who—for different reasons—are not the best at making friends. And Marigold will have to hurry, or the line between her magical world and the human world might crumble until she has no home left to go back to. With sparkling wit and whimsical illustrations, Elise Primavera spins a magical story with all the makings of a classic, perfect for anyone who has ever been a friend in need—or just needed a friend Praise for Marigold Star
