Guardians of Magic is the first title in the brilliant magical adventure series from the creator of Goth Girl, Chris Riddell. With gorgeous two-colour illustrations throughout and a special full-colour guide to the giants in the book, this fantastic hardback is a perfect gift.
For as long as anyone can remember, children have made a wish on a cloud horse, never quite believing that their wishes will come true. But times are changing. The future of magic is in danger. Enemies are working together to destroy it – especially the magic of nature and its most powerful source, The Forever Tree. Unless three brave children fight back and believe in the impossible, soon magic and the cloud horses will be gone. Zam, Phoebe and Bathsheba don’t yet know how powerful they are . . .
In Guardians of Magic the Costa award-winning, 2015-2017 UK Children’s Laureate Chris Riddell weaves together a magical quest. This is the first title in The Cloud Horse Chronicles series.

I really, really enjoyed this book because it was interesting and filled with adventure but don't judge it by it's cover, the children on the title are much more powerful than you think they are.

I really enjoyed the book. I liked the part where the main characters got together and went back to their homes on cloud horses. Zam found a magic spoon , phoebe found a magic cello and bashiba had a magical sword. The clock maker attacked them but they fought back . My favourite character was phoebe as she had a magic talking cello and I like music .

I loved this book. The drawings are so good especially the drawings of the words of wisdom. The story was quite exciting and it was my kind of book with fantasy and wonderful animals. I think the author has a huge imagination to be able to make up three main characters and three stories that merge together.

I thought it was funny because Phoebe has a monster goat called a gruff. I liked Phoebe the best. I would recommend it to a friend at school.
