I was sent a boxset of Bruce Coville’s Magic Shop Books by Bruce Coville

Bruce Coville’s Magic Shop Books [BOXED SET]

by Bruce Coville

Release Date: 2014-11-04

Step inside Mr. Elives’ magic shop, where the shelves are stocked with strange and mysterious goods. The children in these five books each leave the shop with magical items intended especially for them.   In The Monster’s Ring, Russell Crannaker, bullied all his life, gets a chance to fight back when he is given a monstrous magical item.   In Jeremy Thatcher, Dragon Hatcher, a boy gets a small marbled dragon’s egg—and when it hatches, his wildest dreams take wing.   In Jennifer Murdley’s Toad, a girl “in a plain brown wrapper,” buys a talking toad who knows a thing or two about the true nature of beauty.   In The Skull of Truth, Charlie Eggleston, the biggest liar in town, steals a skull from the shop, and it puts him under some sort of spell: He can only tell the truth—but now no one believes him!   And in Juliet Dove, Queen of Love, a shy girl suddenly becomes the most popular girl in school when she wears the ancient amulet given to her at the magic shop.   These funny and fantastic tales are collected in a boxed set, perfect for gift-giving.

Big Thanks to HMH Books for Young Readers for sending me a copy of this book!!

AND as always, big thanks to you for popping by to see what I was rambling on about. LOL

Hope you have a great week.

Just a reminder, I usually post pics of the books I get right as I get them on to my facebook page and my instagram so make sure to click over and LIKE the page and/or follow my gram – then you’ll see what books I get as I get them instead of waiting till I do a “book haul” video. I’ll still do haul videos every couple of weeks, too. So… yeah. All righty then
