Book Description:
8-year-old Mabel likes her room to be neat, her day to be planned, and her life to be organized. If only she could organize her younger sister! 5-year-old Violet is messy and out of control. Just before Violet starts kindergarten, a surprise visit from mysterious Uncle Vartan exposes a big secret; there's magic in their family. Mable is sure she'll know just how to use her powers. After all, she's used to being mature and responsible. But her orderly world begins to fall apart when she learns she's not the one with magic -- it's adorable, annoying Violet. Life will never be the same!

The story was engaging for my 6 year old but there was a part at the end that I thought was inappropriate. The mom told the daughter to keep a secret from her father.

"No, I don't think your father should know. And don't you ever tell him!" her mother said. "Promise me you won't." She only wished she could tell her father! She had never kept secrets from him before. It made her feel sad.

I think this book is sending the wrong message to kids. We won't be reading any more of this series.

My seven and nine year old daughters really enjoyed this book. They are very different kids, yet both really liked it!
