In a nutshell: half vampire, half fairy, all fun
Harriet Muncaster’s stories of little Isadora Moon have deservedly won a huge and enthusiastic following amongst young readers. Isadora’s lively adventures are full of the kinds of magic and make-believe that has real appeal for children, while the descriptions of her mixed family (Dad’s a vampire, Mum’s a fairy) ring very true too. In this episode, Isadora is excited to be going to a human fair, but when she and her family arrive, they find the rides are looking very battered and forlorn. A few touches of magic turns the fair into something very special indeed, but for Isadora the best fun of all is simply spending happy times with her family and friends. The illustrations are full of charm and the short chapters makes this truly accessible to newly independent readers.

About Harriet Muncaster
Harriet Muncaster has been drawing, writing and creating things for as long as she can remember. It was while at school that she discovered that being an illustrator and author was a real career path she could take. From that moment on Harriet knew exactly what she wanted to be! She studied illustration at Norwich University of the Arts and then went on to do an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. After completing the MA, Harriet’s work was spotted by a publisher at Bologna Children’s book fair and she got her first book deal.
Harriet is inspired by anything magical, fantastical and glittery. She also has a great fascination for miniature things and owns a dollshouse in the shape of a castle.
Harriet is the award-winning author of the best-selling Isadora Moon series, with over 5 million copies sold worldwide and translated into over 27 languages, and counting!
Harriet lives in a village in Bedfordshire with her husband, Henry.
