Magic Makers Club: Getting Mixed Up

Ages 6 to 9, Grades 1 to 4

This fun-filled chapter book for children ages 6-9 introduces three young witches whose friendship and budding business skills are tested when they start a magical business to save money for camp.

Stella, Aurora, and Luna are finally old enough for Witch Academy Summer Sleepaway Camp, but there’s just one problem—Aurora’s family can’t afford it! The girls launch the Magic Makers Club to earn the money needed. But their club gets off to a less-than-enchanting start! Problems appear as the witches rush ahead with a hastily made potion that strains their friendship and creates trouble around town. Can the girls regroup and save their new business? Can they find a way to work together? A simple wave of a magic wand won’t be enough…

Each book in the new Magic Makers Club series highlights entrepreneurial and business skills for kids, together with friendship problems–and solutions–and plenty of fun. A potent and bewitching “spell” for chapter book readers!

Series Overview: The Magic Makers Club is a series focusing on three young witches—Stella, Aurora, and Luna—who are determined to earn enough money for all of them to go to Witch Summer Camp. They start a business to use their magical skills around town to help people with everyday issues, from finding lost pets, to repairing things, to recasting fading charms on magical items. The witches gradually learn how to use their magic effectively, how to be savvy entrepreneurs, and how to be better friends.
