Tales of Mystery and Magic

by Hugh Lupton

Summary: A bewitching world of mystery and magic awaits young readers in a collection of seven stories with an uncanny edge from Chile, Greenland, India, West Africa, Seneca, Russia, and Scotland.

The digital collage illustrations contained in this book are beautiful. The stories are lengthy and each contains a few pictures. A few of these stories are fantastic, and others I enjoyed less. This book is great and fits well with this summer’s national reading theme, “One World Many Stories.”
