Unusual magic under suspicion at Dunwiddle

At Dunwiddle Magic School, strange incidents put the Upside-Down Magic class under suspicion. Marigold’s accidental shrinking spell and Nory’s mixed-up squid-and-puppy transformation make the blame understandable, while Bax insists his stone-changing condition has nothing to do with the new rocky magic in the halls. The classmates set out to find the source of the trouble and clear their names. The school mystery is threaded through the series’ central idea: magical differences can be messy without making the children themselves strange or at fault.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children around ages 9–12 interested in school-based fantasy.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about unusual magical abilities and a group investigating a mystery together.

Book overview

The Upside-Down Magic kids are back in another topsy-turvy adventure in the next installment of this New York Times bestselling series, now a Disney Channel Original Movie!

 

The kids in Upside-Down Magic know their magic is a little out of control. But that doesn't make them weird -- it only makes them human.Strange things are happening at Dunwiddle Magic School and the Upside-Down Magic class is getting blamed! Yes, Marigold did shrink Lacey Clench to the size of a gerbil. But that was an accident. And, yes, most people weren't prepared for Nory to transform into a squippy (that's half squid, half puppy)-but it's not like Nory meant to mix up paws and tentacles. And while Bax does have the unfortunate magical condition of turning into a stone, he swears he has nothing to do with the rocky magic that's been happening in Dunwiddle's halls. When things get messy, it's easy to point your finger at the kids with the messiest magic. But the Upside-Down Magic students aren't going to let themselves get in trouble. Instead, they're going to find out what's really going on-and get their school back on track before something really wacky happens.
