Some things are fun at the beginning, but then the trouble starts. Paul quickly discovers this in the new children's book, Secrets of the Magic Ring, by Karen McQuestion; Vincent Desjardins, illustrator (Amazon Encore, 2011).
If you enjoyed Karen McQuestion's earlier children's book, Celia and the Fairies, you will like this sequel. Nine-year-old Paul discovers a buried box in the hole dug for his backyard swimming pool. The box contains a wishing ring complete with instructions. But the find attracts unwanted attention from a stranger named Henry, who demands to have the box and its contents. Things become even stranger when Aunt Vicky gets a much-desired wish fulfilled. Is the ring truly magical? Can wishes come true? It sounds like nothing but fun, but trouble is coming, and soon.
