Martha and ChipThe kingdom of Crabbapple has been at peace for a long time. But trouble still arises now and then, and whenever it does, it is up to a troop of intrepid guardians, the White Magi, to take care of things. Martha is one White Mage who thinks it may be a little too quiet in Crabbapple lately. Her fears are confirmed when her fellow Mage, Mabel, appears one day with terrible news: the witch Aylis has been capturing the White Magi one by one. And now they are the only two left! Now, Martha isn't afraid of some old witch. Unfortunately, Aylis isn't any old witch. She's got dragons, and lots of them-from small green ground dragons to huge red fire-breathing monsters. Martha will need help to get past them and save the other White Magi. But sometimes the greatest help comes in the smallest packages. Suitable for young readers, age 9 through 12, Martha and Chip is a fun-filled adventure that shows that even the most humble creatures among us have important gifts to give. |
