In The Garden of Always Winter: A Middle-Grade Tie-In to the Enchanted Castle Archives

IN THE GARDEN OF ALWAYS WINTER

 

Growing up in the enchanted castle with a pet dragon named Smedley is always an adventure. Especially when sleeping magic wakes up and tries to cause trouble.

 

'Na was given a snow globe full of magic at her christening. Her parents didn't know who sent it to her, so they knew it had to be dangerous. They locked it away until they could find answers.

 

Then one fall day, the snow globe wakes up and shows a door to a garden at the enchanted castle: The Garden of Always Winter, where snow covers everything.

 

'Na's parents make her promise not to go through the gate into the garden without them, because it could be dangerous.

 

She really did want to obey them.

 

But …

First the gate opened.

Then the snow ogres came through.

Then Smedley picked her up and threw her on his back, and he raced through the gate to get away from the ogres.

 

What is hiding under the snow?

Is it dangerous?

What can a little girl and her dragon who is still learning how to use his fire do to break a curse hundreds of years old?
