Explorers on Witch Mountain
Alex Bell, Tomislav Tomic
The second title in this gorgeously imaginative middle grade fantasy adventure series combining the best of Peter Pan, Lemony Snicket, Northern Lights and Alice in Wonderland.
Stella Starflake Pearl is eagerly anticipating her next expedition. Suddenly disaster strikes when Stella’s father, Felix, is snatched by a fearsome witch. Stella must bring her magic ice princess tiara to Witch Mountain or she will never see Felix again! But no one ever returns from Witch Mountain . . .
Stella, Ethan, Shay, Beanie and reluctant Jungle Cat explorer, Gideon, set off into the unknown. They will face chomping pumpkin patches, vampire trolls, poisonous rabbits, outraged vultures and deranged broomsticks in their quest to rescue Felix.
Praise for the series:
‘A magical adventure of friendship, bravery and derring-do in a richly imagined world.’ The Bookseller
‘A fantastic frosty adventure.’ Sunday Express
‘Wintry, atmospheric, highly imaginative fantasy.’ Metro
‘The most huggable book of the year . . . An (iced) gem.’ SFX

My favourite character was Stella Starflake Pearl. In this book, they travel to Witch Mountain to rescue Stella's dad Felix. But at the end you find out that the ''baddie'' (Jezzy Beller) is a goodie.

What is the word for astonishing, exciting, phenomenal, and fearsome? That word would describe this book. Alex Bell is one of my favourite authors. I'd like to become a writer like him. I liked the character of Stella the Snow Queen best; Shay and his shadow wolf were also great. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes an engrossing read.

This is a really good adventure book. I loved the first book and I love this second one too. I'm going to read the third book next and I would definitely recommend it to my friends.

This exciting fiction book includes an incredible adventure and fascinating creatures. My favourite characters are Shay- a wolf whisperer - and Stella- an ice princess that can create anything out of ice by using a magic tiara and can make anything out of snow by just wishing for it. This book is so good I can’t even think of my favourite part. I would recommend this to anyone who loves adventures and fascinating mythical and enchanted creatures.

I think that this book(Explorers on witch mountain) was a very good book. It is a fiction book and my favourite character is Stella, because she is an ice-princess and I would definately reccommend it to any of my friends. There are many ups and downs but fortunately they always get solved (whatever the problem is).

This book was AMAZING! Stella and her friends head to Witch Mountain to save Felix and confront Jezzybella, the witch who killed Stella's birth parents. Along the way, they meet several dangerous creatures, as well as a friendly witch hunter named Cadi. A great story for adventure seekers!

It was packed with tons of adventure! My favourite part is when Cadi the witch hunter comes in and saves them from flying sharks. I think people who like adventure books should read this.

It's an adventurous book about an ice princess called Stella who needs to rescue her foster father. She calls up her friends and together they start to climb Witch Mountain. They don't know what's going to happen to them, since it's a dangerous place from which only a few make it back. They meet a range of new creatures, like evil teddy bears, chomping pumpkins, flying sharks and lots of witches and witch wolves. Some are friendly, some attack them, making it a difficult journey to the top of the mountain. I really liked this book so I would definitely recommend it.
Senorita Petronella Legend 11.07.2020

This is an adventurous and exciting story about Stella, an ice princess who has to go on a quest to save Felix, her foster parent. She calls on her friends to join her and together they set off to climb Witch Mountain. It's a difficult journey in which they will face flying sharks, chomping pumpkins, evil teddy bears and lots of witches. But is all what it seems? I certainly liked the book a lot and would definitely recommend it.
