This book was great I enjoyed the fact there was a magical map that could let you teleport.

This wasn't my favourite book because I struggled to understand the story.

My favourite character in this book was Grace because she thought that her brother was getting special spy kit but they had the same amount of training so in her head she said this is unfair. To prove to her Mum and her brother she went on a mission but it was surprisingly it was a trick! Great book very exciting!

Griffin map is a map where if people need help they can call the Griffin map and a Griffin will come to the rescue. in this book, there is a child named Grace who is 13. if you want to be a griffin you have to be 15. how ever one day when a call comes to the griffin gate asking for help Grace takes action to show how brave she is. Won't spoil the story so I'll finish here. Recommend for Children.

My favourite character was Grace because she was smart and even though she was to young to be a warden she didn't let that stop her. She was a little bit naughty but she did it for the greater good and saved everyone also there was a lot of plot twists that were very shocking it was as if I was in the book!

Grace teleports to save a village invaded by a monster using an enchanted map... but the monster is a fake trap, can she save herself? This adventure-packed novella was hard to put down... I read it in one sitting, a very captivating read suitable for any age!
