Tilly and the Bookwanderers (Pages & Co., #1)

by Anna James

A captivating, curl-up-on-the-sofa debut about the magic of books and the power of the imagination.

Since her mother’s disappearance, eleven-year-old Tilly has found comfort in stories at Pages & Co., her grandparents’ bookshop. But when her favourite characters, Anne of Green Gables and Alice from Wonderland, appear in the shop, Tilly’s adventures become very real. Not only can she follow Anne and Alice into their thrilling worlds, she discovers she can bookwander into any story she chooses.

Tilly’s new ability could even help her solve the mystery of what happened to her mother all those years ago. But danger may be lurking on the very next page…

I cannot express how much I've wanted to meet favorite characters from books. Or wanted to be able to travel into the books that I've particularly liked over the years. So Tilly and the Bookwanderers is sort of like the middle-grade version of my dream brought to life. Even better - it's done well. It's heartwarming and lovely, and the characters are ones I believe I will enjoy hearing from on a regular basis. Definitely looking forward to more Pages & Co.!
