The Wood at the Bottom of the Garden Gate

by B.A. Keating

"As a child I loved reading books that took me away to enchanted worlds believing the magic could be true one day and now as an adult - reading this book was not a disappointment!! I couldn't put it down, interested in the characters lives and swept away on the magical travels of Cat and her new friends." - Amazon Review "Beautifully written book." - Amazon Review "Exquisite read for all ages..." Amazon Review 11-year-old Catherine (Cat) Whiteoak thought she was in for the absolute worst summer on record, what with the unpleasant arrival of her father's horrible new girlfriend, her best (and only) friend going away for the entire school holidays, not to mention finding herself grounded for her troubles. But when Cat stumbles across a real, live, but seriously injured flower fairy in her back yard, this leads to the discovery of a secret magical Wood located at the bottom of her very own garden gate. The Guardian of the Wood, Serrabella Moon, grateful to Cat for her kindness towards the fairy, grants her unprecedented access to the enchanted Wood, where she spends a wonderful summer swimming with water sprites, reading with bookworms, and picnicking with pixies. Although, sadly, not all the Wood's magical residents are quite so keen on this human intruder invading their home, and they plan to put an immediate stop to it; there are secrets that must be protected at all costs. But when the ancient Wood's very existence is threatened by the human world with extinction, will Cat be able to save her new friends and their home from being wiped out forever? A magical, must-read eco-adventure filled with hidden dangers, unexpected friendships, and a cast of lovable, unforgettable characters you'll want to make lifelong friends with.
