From beloved author E. D. Baker comes a brand-new, illustrated chapter book series featuring a spirited heroine and the magical animals and creatures she encounters!
Eight-year-old Maggie has a keen eye for noticing things in the Enchanted Forest that no one else does — like unicorns, griffins, and tiny flying horses with wings. One day while Maggie is herding sheep with her pesky stepbrother, she stumbles upon an injured flying horse. The only way to help the horse is to take it to a kindly stableman named Bob, who cares for many different magical animals! But in order to do so, Maggie must set out on her own and journey through the Enchanted Forest, which is full of dangerous trolls and goblins who get in her way. Will Maggie reach Bob in time to save her new friend?
This new, black-and-white illustrated series is perfect for fans of Princess Ponies, Magic Horses, and Critter Club.

      Gr 1-4-In Flying Horse, Maggie's father has remarried and her new siblings just don't seem to like her. She has a particularly hard time getting along with stepbrother Peter. He is often short-tempered, and everything she does annoys him. Plus, her stepmother gives her chore after chore, and Maggie can't keep up. Thankfully she lives by the enchanted forest with all its magical creatures-including a kindly unicorn and whimsical fairies. Maggie comes across a tiny flying horse who needs her help. Fortunately, she remembers her grandmother's tales of a man who takes care of magical creatures, and Maggie is determined to find him. Braving mischievous goblins and angry trolls, the girl sets out to save this wee creature, even if it means angering her stepfamily. In Wish Fish, Maggie continues to struggle to be accepted by her unloving stepfamily. Things often go awry with her tasks, and Maggie's punishment usually involves bed without supper. Maggie soon happens upon a talking fish in the enchanted forest who grants her one wish. VERDICT With charming illustrations and short chapters, this new fantasy series will appeal to youngsters who enjoy fairy tales.-Mary Jennings, Camano Island Library, WA

      In the Enchanted Forest, populated with unicorns, griffins, trolls, etc., Maggie lives with her not-so-nice stepmother and stepsiblings. These first two adventures involve rescuing a flying mini horse and catching a magical wish-granting fish. With a fairy-tale feel, these chapter books will appeal to magic lovers not quite ready for Baker's many popular middle-grade series (Tales of the Frog Princess et al.).
