Review:

Edward and his friends Feenix, Danton, and Brigit are learning about global warming in science class, and global warming could be why winter is still dragging on during the spring season. Edward and his friends have a different theory about why winter is hanging on and soon discover that the Lady of Spring has been held prisoner by a strange being who calls himself Tiltersmith. Now, they must find a few magical objects that will help them free the Lady of Spring and get the season back to normal. But of course, Tiltersmith doesn’t want that to happen, and will be their biggest obstacle.

Author Amy Herrick has created a story that is full of magic, science, and very diverse and interesting characters. Readers will be engaged while reading this fast-paced story with twists and turns found throughout. Parents and teachers can use this as a tool to discuss global warming.
