The Trouble With Magic
About this ebook
Bettony is doing everything she can to turn her sister Cadmilla back into a person. Unfortunately, magic hasn’t been as much help as she thought it would be.
Instead of the fairy tale she’d hoped for, Bettony has had her hands full trying to de-toadify her sister, figure out her magic, and deal with the loss of her song.
That is, until she does the unthinkable and “borrows” her fairy godmother’s wand. Only for three nights—just long enough for her sister to attend the three royal balls that could be the answer to her future dreams and happiness.
After that, she’ll return the wand and confess her crime. In the meantime, though, she has a happily ever after to plan, a fairy godmother to avoid, and magical aid from an unexpected source.
And maybe, once this is all over, she’ll see about getting a wand of her own.
After all, how much trouble can a single wand cause? Bettony is about to find out . . .

About the author
Danyelle Leafty: Collector of Dragons, Talking Frogs, and Fairy Godmothers
Danyelle has devoured fairy tales ever since she learned read, and has been enjoying a steady diet of them ever since.
During her time as Storyteller-in-Chief, she has learned that dragons do make everything taste a little bit better, that nothing is ever so dire that a quick transmogrification can’t make things worse, that at the heart of every story is a kernel of truth, and that all the best stories begin with “Once upon a time . . .” (one way or another).
When she isn’t trying to entice more Story out of her characters, she can be found curled up with a book, learning new languages, plucking away at her harp, knitting, drawing, or trying to convince her Younglings that vegetables are neither villainous nor unnecessary and that bedtime is non-negotiable.
The Small Ones remain unconvinced.
