Neverwood, Book 1
Middle-Grade Fantasy
Date Published: 08-31-2021
Publisher: Hidden Wolf Books
The Mulberry Mansion harbors more than one peculiar mystery. Vintage circus freak decor, oddly decorated bed chambers, and sensational sandwiches are just the beginning of the phenomena. Deep within the attic, twelve-year-old Cloette and her brother, Rocco, discover a twisted glowing blanket fort magically hovering, luring them to enter. From within, they uncover the “Ticklish Tome”, an enchanted ticklish book that sucks them away into the eerie realm of Neverwood.
The remarkable land is under an unusual incantation from the wildly wicked Wretched Harridan and is in need of help only the siblings can provide. But the reluctant heroes doubt their abilities to help against such a devilish fearsome foe. With their one chance to break the spell quickly approaching, the race against time is quickly vanishing.
Will Cloette and Rocco discover their own powers in order to save the enchanted realm of Neverwood?
Can they rescue Prism, the most magical dark unicorn in existence?
Will they have any hope of ever returning home?
Will they ever taste sensational sandwiches ever again?

EXCERPT
My Dearest Word Wooer,
What you hold in your hands is Magic. You have chosen well. You must be very wise, dignified, and with an enormous amount of gas ( oops … excuse me, I meant to say … an enormous amount of courage … to be brave enough to open the pages of this Dark and Twisted Ticklish Tome. Do be careful when reading this, however, … it’s not for just anyone, you know. It’s meant for magical book lovers like you.
Sooo?
Are you hungry for something yummy? Something scrumdiddlyumptious?
Great!
Let’s get ready.
First, you must prepare yourself and your surroundings for little interruption. Put on your snuggliest, softest, sensuous sleepsuit. Assemble yourself a cup of hot cocoa with extra marshmallows, ( I do really love marshmallows). And then, you must hide yourself within a fluffy fort made of blankets. Be sure to have around you, a pile of pillows, stuffed animals, and a stomach full of sandwiches … you’ll thank me later.
You’ll also need some kind of light … so you can see. I can’t do everything for you, you know.
With all my best flatulations,
Me
