Review:
Phoebe goes to music camp for a week during the summer. Dakota has some issues with her magical hair gaining a mind of its own - this eventually results in problems with goblins. We meet Marigold's sister, Florence Unfortunate Nostrils. Then it's time to go back to school. Phoebe accidentally becomes briefly famous for being Marigold's friend. She worries about PE and really looks up to Sam, an older student she thinks is cool.
I don't really have anything new to say about this series. It's just a nice, fun, low-stress read with enjoyable, slightly flawed characters. I love the character designs - the new little goblins are cute.
Extras:
An introduction by Cory Doctorow (with Poesy Taylor Doctorow, age 7, his daughter). Also, instructions for drawing various supporting characters, a recipe for "Questing Mix" (trail mix), and a page on the appearance of a unicorn in the original Alice in Wonderland.
