A spellbinding story discovering the power of magic from Amy Wilson, critically acclaimed author of A Girl Called Owl and A Far Away Magic. When daydreamer Clementine discovers a mysterious house standing in the middle of town that was never there before, she is pulled towards it by the powerful sense of a mother she never knew. The place is full of snowglobes, swirling with stars and snow and each containing a trapped magician, watched over by Gan, the bitter keeper of the house. One of these is Dylan, a boy who teases her in the real world but who is now desperate for her help. So Clem ventures into the snowglobes, rescuing Dylan and discovering her own powerful connection to the magic of these thousand worlds. Vowing to release the magicians from the control of their enchantments, Clem unknowingly unleashes a struggle for power that will not only put her family, but the future of magic itself in danger.

The person I liked best was the Clementine and Dylan because they both had magic inside them and they really liked to go on adventure’s and risking loads of stuff.

It was fiction and the person I liked best in that book is Dylan Clem and Callisto (Clem’s mother). I would recommend it to someone else because it has magic in it and the book interested me a lot in it and it has a nice and good ending.

My favourite person in this book is Clementine.She embarks on a mission to save her friend Dylan from being trapped in a snowglobe. On the way, Clem figures out who her mom is, what relatives she has and maybe even finds her mom. The reason this book caught my attention is because the cover was beautifully illustrated and I looked at the recommendations this book achieved.I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure stories, mystery, magic and more

I did like this book but i prefer books with genres of horror and mystery rather than magic and discoveries. The things i liked about the book was all the suspense, that is what made me want to read on. I also liked how the book got better as it went on, bits like when Clementine had to discover so many discoveries and all the secrets that were unlocked got me interested into the book. Snow globe is a book about a girl called Clementine who kicked off in school, so she then received a 3 day suspension, which then her father gives her a diary that was written by her mother (who had died). It gave details of her childhood home. Clementine then went to the house. She was worried (because of how old the house was) that she would fall through the 2nd floor. Clem then spotted a tun of snow globes that were very unusual as they were alive humans in them. One of the boys was called Dylan, she was going to attempt breaking him out. My favourite character is Clementine. She is my favourite character because she is daring, caring, tries her best and never gives up. I would recommend this book to people of the age group of 10-14. Also to people who like books in the genre of magic, unlocking secrets, discoveries and teamwork.

After an incident at school, 12 year old Clementine is drawn to a hidden house. Inside, she discovers a world of snow globes but when she reaches the attic, she discovers a schoolboy with water magic trapped in an icy snow globe. On a mission to rescue him, Clem finds herself in the snow globes too! After a trip into some other globes, Clem realises that the only way to get out of these magical worlds is to go back into reality. But when she and her friend are out side, Clem knows her long lost mother is in there and she has to find her. Will Clem find her mother? I loved this book because it was a mixture of fantasy and mystery, two of my favourite genres. It was so good i could hardly put it down! I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, mysterious book to read.

I really liked this book. It was super interesting and I couldn't let go!! My favourite character is Clementine because she had underestimated herself and she realized the world isn't the way she sees it to be.

The story is based on a girl whose name is Clementine. Clem's mother died long ago when she was just two years old. She is a very lonely girl and tends to daydream a lot. But Clem has magical powers that could be, sometimes fierce... But then, when Clem sees a house full of snowglobes she freakes out when she sees one of her classmates in a snowglobe. She sets out on an adventure to save her friend but she gets stuck inside herself. Do you think Clem can save herself and her friend? The main characters of the story are- Clementine, Dylan (her friend), Ganymede, Io, Clem's mother, Clem's dad, Helios and Jago. This is a book of delight and wonder in which everyone will enjoy reading. It is a book of mysteries and adventures. My favourite character was Clem as i would love to have magical powers too. I would love to recommend this book to all the fans of fantasies and mysteries.

What a brilliant book that I just read. It was such a good book because I was mind blown when I finished it. I found it weird as the girl finds Dylan in a mysterious house behind glass, and then had to go on adventures to save him. I would recommend this book to someone as I couldn't stop reading it.

A wonderful, magical book. Dylan and Clementine work together to find the good side of Ganymeade, Clementine's auntie. My faverite carecter is Dylan.
