I re-read and re-reviewed this book after years of attending grammar training with it being the sole book used across counties which put me off. Thank goodness I returned years later to enjoy it for what it is.Leon attends a circus show with his friends who are all hoping to lose themselves to the magic and mystery of the event. Leon though is sceptical until the magic begins and he is instantaneously bewitched. Like Alice in Wonderland, he is soon transported to another realm and place where the 'magic takes you' and never lets go.

I haven't gone through everything, but seems like these recources perfectly match the PoR teaching sequence. You have saved me so much work. Thank you! We loved it! The story is really sweet, its about believing in magic. Which i personally loved because im all about kids being kids and holding onto the magic for as long as possible!This book has the most amazing illustrations which draw the reader in, making them feel like they are in the story itself. When Leon goes to the magic show, he is the only one who believes. His brothers and sisters are in for a big surprise however: this is no ordinary show and Abdul Kazam is no ordinary magician. Leon is taken on a journey right into the Place Between, where magic becomes really real.

Pause the story at the point when Leon is about to enter the box. Should he go in? Make a list of ‘for’ and ‘against’ arguments. With his beloved soft toy Lionheart at his side, Richard has the courage to confront his night-time fears. This enchanting picture book has warm, atmospheric illustrations.
