Advance Praise
I’m so ENCHANTED, and entertained- I love, love, love every moment reading this! Gault trips me up with laughing my head off while trying to be serious. The art and writing is exquisite. I’m constantly delighted by those “turns of phrase.” (Maine USA)
This story changed my definition of magic. (Washington USA)
 Goofy characters dared me to forget them. Good thing I lost that bet.  (New Jersey USA)
Imagine all the wheedling, begging, bribing, sobbing, and promising I had to do whenever it was time to leave the Realm even for a little while. (Maine USA)
This book has happiness, positivity, reverence for nature, and the jewel in the crown: HUMOR! It lends itself so well to ponder life’s mysteries complete with little koans and wild prose sprouting everywhere! (Maine USA)
Poignant. (Alberta, Canada)
Like the best fairy tales, this remarkable cross cultural expedition offers many layers of meaning. Both young and old from many walks of life will find new truths and insights here. (Massachusetts USA)

There is no book to compare. If you stir the spirit of Crockett Johnson's Harold's Purple Crayon, Emily Carr’s Book of Small, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince and the Disney movie Fantasia, be careful. (New York, USA)
When art comes to Life....

Why?
Is it a sign of good luck, or something even better?

Quirky friends and goofy angels in disguise disrupt and poke fun with a young artist as she works. Game on! 

There’s puzzles to solve, doors to find, love notes and souvenirs to collect along the way. Owls play hide and seek and a teapot is in on the hoot. Clues are hidden inside the pictures. Long live music and art.
✨✨
Caution: Mirth, light-hearted magic and coincidence in the forecast. 

Overgrownups and killjoys will never be amused!

 ⛲️ Life’s been better ever since. ✨
