The Secret Magics of Maine

by Matt Watier

Playing in the shadowy mud of the forest, swimming in the cold Atlantic Ocean, and hiding under the wildflowers in the fields, children find magic throughout Maine. Share with your child the enchanting stories and mystical creatures in Watier’s The Secret Magics of Maine. This guide and its award winning illustrations will inspire your child’s imagination as they meet mythical creatures like Victoria, Queen of the Lobsters, Flarians children of the Sun, and the Arctic Frost Beast who is the cause of deep winter blizzards. Don’t miss a chance to share a magical moment with your child.
