Jack Frost was shocked that Elsie could freeze people because he thought he was the only person that could do Ice magic.

This book is about a witch who went missing and her friend Elsie is worried about her. I liked it then they found the witch because I didn’t want her to be lost forever. I would recommend this book to people who like hearing that people get lost and found again. I would give this book 5/5.

This book was really good. Elsie was looking after the tower again when Jack Frost wants to take over. Elsie managed to stop him. My favourite character was nuisance the dog because he was fluffy. I would recommend this book

I think it was a very nice fictional book. And I love how children are the ones that save the day. My favourite person was Sylphine because she was funny and always determined to find Magenta. I would really recommend this book to everyone.
