A summer adventure between two friends who are tricked into opening a door into an enchanted world... and being trapped in there! What was suppose to be a fun summer holiday in Wales turns into something more as Portia and Ben stumble upon a mysterious door in the middle of the forest... and are tricked into opening and going into it. Now they have to find a way to escape before it's too late. Robin Goodfellow is a man with a fox shadow who needs someone to open up a certain door so he can return home... and if that means tricking to kids into opening it for him while he's disguised as a innocent fox, why not. Yet with the door open, danger and evil can come through and both Ben and Portia must find a way to stop the human and fairy world from evil. This was a cute fairytale/summer read and I think middle grade readers will have fun with it. It didn't grip or enchant me as much as I would have liked, but it was an easy read and I think younger readers will have fun with it as an easy read. It's got fun magic and the setting makes it a good one to add to your summer tbr for middlegrade readers.
