Do you believe in magic? Lexi and her friends do! And when they meet the Star Animals, a whole world of magical adventure unfolds in this exciting new chapter book from the Star Friends series featuring black-and-white illustrations throughout.

When strange things begin to happen in Westport, Lexi, Mia, Violet, and Sita suspect that someone is doing dark magic. Mia has a scary dream about someone casting spells in the girls' special clearing in the woods. The adults seem to have forgotten about their responsibilities. And one night, the girls all notice that ivy begins crawling up the windowsill in their bedrooms! Can the Star Friends--with the help of their beloved Star Animals--figure out who is behind the dark magic before it is too late?

In the Star Friends chapter book series, Mia and her friends Lexi, Sita, and Violet all discover that they are Star Friends -- they can communicate with the animals that have traveled from the Star World. The animals show the girls how to use their unique magic abilities to do good. A whole world of magical adventures awaits!
Linda Chapman is the best-selling author of over 200 books. The biggest compliment Linda can have is for a child to tell her they became a reader after reading one of her books. Linda lives in a cottage with a tower in Leicestershire with her husband, three children, two dogs, and one pony. When she's not writing, Linda likes to ride, read, and visit schools and libraries to talk to people about writing.

Lucy Fleming has been an avid doodler and bookworm since early childhood. Drawing always seemed like so much fun but she never dreamed it could be a full-time job! She lives and works in a small town in England with her partner and a little black cat. When not at her desk she likes nothing more than to be outdoors in the sunshine with a cup of hot tea.
