Carnival Magic and The Castle in the Mist
"Carnival Magic" Is the Whimsical Adventure of Your Dreams
[Carnival Magic is] a softer otherworldly take on childhood mystery, reminiscent of classics like A Secret Garden….”Carnival Magic” is in itself an escape. Tess especially follows in that lineage of strong, intelligent female characters – a sort of Lucy Pevensic/Hermione Granger hybrid who is a leader, who
believes in magic.
