y separately published work icon The Search for the Story Realm Brooke Scobie , Melbourne : Penguin , 2024 28259907 2024 single work children's fiction children's fantasy

'A breathtaking fantasy-adventure trilogy. Do you dare step into the Realm? A magical journey awaits . . .

'Long ago (or maybe it was yesterday?) in the depths of the cool dark bush, under fallen trees and lime green moss, lived an ancient magic. A magic that, despite what you might imagine, did not belong there at all. It especially didn't belong at a 10-year-old's house.

'Tane was looking for adventure as he raced through the bush after school one day. What he was not looking for was a Story Spirit- yep, he met some kind of ghost-kid with a cheeky grin and swirling colours, looking like a whole universe was trapped inside them. But the Story Spirit is stuck, and urgently needs Tane and Sibyl's help . . . only finishing a story will get them back home.

'Sounds easy, right?'  (Publication summary)

'The second instalment in the debut fantasy trilogy. A magical adventure awaits!

'Long ago (or maybe it was yesterday?) after the Nothing but before our world's beginning, the Story Realm was already ancient. A small and wonderful universe, where the Great River flows deep and powerful, feeding every part of that world . . . But at the time of this story, something was very wrong with the River.

'P has always had a special connection to water. Their first step as a baby was towards a river. Nearly 12, rivers are P's safe place where almost everything makes sense. But now the Great River is sick, and she desperately needs P's help.

'But how can a regular kid save a whole river, let alone an entire magical Realm?

'And what kind of a greedy world destroys its own environment and poisons its waters . . . oh, wait.' (Publication summary)

y separately published work icon The Power of the Heart Brooke Scobie , Melbourne : Penguin , 2024 28260010 2024 single work children's fiction children's

'The third book in the debut fantasy trilogy. A magical adventure awaits! 

'Long ago (or maybe it was just yesterday?) all of the universes were linked together. But one day, after millions of years of peace a great war broke out, and the fibres that held the woven universes together broke.

'The Story Realm grew in harmony on its own for the longest time, until the day a group of beings came in search of land and power to steal. Though the Story Realm survived this invasion, the land, and the magic within were never the same.

'For weeks, Sibyl has been haunted by nightmares that feel magic. A mysterious illness is ripping through the Story Realm- trees are disappearing, animals are acting vicious and now Sibyl herself is sick too.

'The only cure? Our adventurers, Tane, P and Sibyl must find the heart of the Story Realm. With a new Storyteller in town, their quest might just be possible.

'But who is this new Storyteller? Can they be trusted?

'And with so much at stake, how can Sibyl save the Story Realm . . . before she disappears with it?

'In the third instalment of the magical adventure series, join Sibyl, Tane and P in the ultimate battle to save the Story Realm.'  (Publication summary)
