Product Description 
Unlock the door to adventure! 
Debbie Torken and her brother Danny have heard rumours of the world where Magicians dwell. But when Danny is accidentally handed a Key that unlocks the realm of Magicas they are pitched into an adventure they never could have expected. 
Tween witch Pippa Dracona prefers mathematics to magic, so the chance to attend a school in Physicas, the realm of science, was supposed to be a dream come true. But the Dame Ivy Newton School for Gifted and Unusual Students has too many archaic and nonsensical rules. Pippa is about to fail her favourite subject and lose her place in the course. When she makes a spur-of-the-moment decision to let the Torken children into the realm of magic, she might have made her worst choice yet ... or, perhaps, her best. 
If Pippa is to keep an important promise, she must find a way to get the Torkens home before the next witching hour begins. It's time to enlist the help of some eccentric friends, solve a bizarre mystery involving unicorns and missing belongings, and gain some much-needed perspective. After all, there are two sides to every equation. 
A low-conflict adventure ideal for sensitive readers. 
 Review 
"Skillful storytelling and world building. Sweet and funny.""I LOVE the humor here and the voice--it reminds me of Rowling in the best way." 
 About the Author 
Elle Carter Neal grew up between the covers of books, emerging only when her story-telling skills were required for games with friends or to invent explanations when something went wrong. She lives in Australia where cockatoos chew on the power lines and anything printed out on paper is likely to be chased around the house by her cat, or used in a construction project by her children. Luckily she has a plan. And makes plenty of back-ups.

In a family of magical treasure hunters, luckless Maddie Lane is the second-born and therefore doomed, like her mother before her, to a dull life of safe, boring jobs, expected to stay home and raise the next generation, while her elder sister inherits the magic and adventure of the family business. But Maddie has more history than anyone realised: someone has been waiting nearly 900 years for her to arrive. A seemingly chance gift grants Maddie access to a world even her experienced ancestors were unaware of, and suddenly it is Maddie who is set on the adventure of a lifetime as she becomes embroiled in a quest to save two planets. Madison Lane is about to be Grounded. And it's much more fun, adventure, and danger than she could have wished for.
