Jenny McLachlan Bücher

Willkommen in einer Welt voller fantastischer Wesen! Da ist ein Zauberer auf Opas Dachboden! Davon ist Arthur überzeugt, auch wenn seine Zwillingsschwester Rose ihn auslacht. Glaubt Arthur etwa immer noch an die wundersamen Wesen aus dem Fantasieland Arro, das sie sich als kleine Kinder ausgedacht haben? Doch bald muss Rose einsehen, dass Arthur Recht hat: Arro existiert wirklich! Und ausgerechnet Kreuch, der schreckliche Vogelscheuchenmann, hat ihren Opa verschleppt. Arthur und Rose bleiben nur drei Tage Zeit, um Opa aus dem Krähennest zu befreien und zu verhindern, dass Kreuch ihn in eine Scheuche verwandelt. Zum Glück erhalten sie Hilfe von ihrem Freund Minja (einem Ninja-Magier), dem Schaukelpferd Prosecco, dem Drachen Sauergurke und weiteren magischen Gefährten. »Fantastisch und spannend!« ZEIT Leo

Annie kann es kaum erwarten, endlich mit dem College anzufangen. Die tägliche Zugfahrt dorthin nimmt sie gern in Kauf, wenn sie so ihrer allzu besorgten Mutter entkommt. Voller Begeisterung stürzt sie sich in ihr neues Leben und alles, was dazugehört. Sich zu verlieben steht nicht besonders weit oben auf ihrer Liste. Anders bei Fab, der gleich am ersten Tag in Annies Englischkurs auftaucht: sehr groß, sehr überschwänglich und sofort Hals über Kopf in Annie verliebt. Doch die hält ihn erst einmal auf Abstand. Erst einmal. Eine Liebesgeschichte, die mitten ins Herz zielt.

„Du lässt den Arm auf der Schulter deines Partners ruhen und er legt seine Hand auf deinen unteren Rücken. Dann haltet ihr euch an den Händen. Ihr steht ganz nah zusammen. Praktisch verschmelzt ihr miteinander.“ Eine Teilnahme beim landesweiten Tanzwettbewerb Starwars? Das ist für die schüchterne Bea ja schon aufregend genug, aber ihr Tanzpartner ist ausgerechnet Ollie Matthews, der heißeste Junge der Schule. Leider hat auch Beas Rivalin Pearl ein Auge auf Ollie geworfen. Und die macht Bea ordentlich das Leben schwer. Natürlich ist Jenny McLachlans Debütroman eine Verbeugung vor Dirty Dancing , dem Kultfilm der Achtzigerjahre. Aber es ist auch eine wunderbare Geschichte über Schüchternheit und Mut und die Frage, ob Mädchenfreundschaft zerbricht, wenn die erste Liebe auftaucht.

Ein fantasievolles Kinderbuch über die Zwillinge Arthur und Rose, die ins magische Land Arro zurückkehren. Dort müssen sie ihre Ängste bewältigen und eine geheimnisvolle Box vor Kreuch dem Scheuch schützen, während Mex, die magische Mexe, verschwunden ist. Spannendes Abenteuer garantiert!
