Today, we’d like to introduce you to ALMOST MAGIC by Kathleen Bullock.
Book Blurb:
Ever since she turned twelve, Apple Bramblewood’s life has been plagued
by visits from weird creatures. It seems she is a rare Attractor, a
Wizard whose sole talent is solving the clamorous demands of very odd
beings, usually in the most unorthodox, haphazard, and klutzy ways.
Apple doesn’t want to be an Attractor; her most passionate goal is to
attend the ordinary middle school with ordinary kids where her perfect
older sister, Cornelia, is allowed to go. Her parents have no doubts
about Cornelia’s magical prowess, but Apple seems destined to be
home-schooled forever.
