This was a lovely little book to read. I read this to my 6 year old daughter, and she thoroughly enjoyed it.
Despite not having read the first couple of books, the story was quite enjoyable and per my daughter, "really funny, with lots of things happening!"
The only downside is that there are a LOT of characters, and without the guide in the beginning of the book with the pictures of who each character is, I think children may get easily confused on which character is which. The names are 'fanciful', so it takes some time getting used to them. Again, I am not sure if the characters were introduced a bit more slowly in the beginning novels so that a young person can get used to who is who. But reading out of order we had to keep flipping back to spot the characters and remember which one was which.
Again, a lovely little story of friendship, and solving a few different problems that pop up.
The illustrations are simple, but lovely! I can really see this being animated into a series.
Foxglove's Magical Mix-Up is the third book in the Moonlight Magic Club chapter book series by Melody Lockhart and does not disappoint. The four witches in training face new challenges and magical mishaps and must rely on their friendship bond to help them make things right. It was fun reading how they used their unique skills to help each other. Highly recommended.
I started reading this, and then gave it to my child to read – and we both decided that we need books 1 and 2 also. That was the right decision, reading them all in order was the best.
A beautiful middle-grade read!
The other books that I have read in this series I have loved and this was no exception. I was hooked and little middle grade me would have loved it. Great writing, great characters and funny. I can't recommend this series enough
Foxglove's Magical Mix-Up is the third book in the Moonlight Magic Club chapter book series by Melody Lockhart. Four girls who are witches-in-training encounter magical mishaps and rely on their friendship bond to help them restore order. This time the girls take a field trip to another world and Foxglove accidentally brings back a tiny creature who stowed away on her hat. The creature causes all their magic to go awry and they are under strict orders by Foxglove's aunt to stop using magic until the creature is caught and returned to its own world. When Foxglove forgets the new rule she causes her friends Maya and Pandora to switch bodies! Can the girls fix this mess before Foxglove's Aunt finds out? This is a a fun addition to the series that will appeal to new readers who like a bit of magic in their stories.
Such a fun and cute illustrated story, perfect for middle graders I would say. I enjoyed reading this myself as an adult though! Super cute.
This was the second book I've read in this series and it was a silly and fun take on your basic Freaky Friday body swap along with continuing the tween witch troop plot of the series. Quick and fun, I enjoyed the periodic illustrations and the silly story of friends, animals, and magical creatures. This would be an easy read for young children.

Thank you so much to Arcturus and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.
After going into the rainbow realm a tricksie sneaks into Foxgloves hat, meaning until the fixers arrive they can use no magic or go into the tree house. Foxglove accidentally makes a wish for Maya and Pandora to understand each other breaking the rules.
This was really interesting, with the funny little tricksies that multiply constantly and magic goes haywire when they are around. The girls kept seeing many things going strange that had an enchantment on it which was so funny, they had to keep everything contained as much as possible.
I liked that Maya and Pandora swapped as they both keep bickering with each other in each book, but they finally learnt about each other and figured out how it is to live as the other, with the pressures the others have on themselves. It was great they were able to become closer to each other by being each other.
This was a really great book, I enjoyed meeting Ziggy he was so cute, the illustrations are always great to look at and seeing the words come alive in the pictures is always great. I liked this storyline quite a lot it was amusing as so much happened and kept happening, it was funny and entertaining.
This is such a great series for anyone that loves magic, fantasy and witches, they are so much fun to read and each book being about a different witch makes them even more interesting to read.
This is the third in this series and they are fun, easy reads for small children.
They go over the characters at the start so the books can be read alone. The girls are at the Rainbow Realm trying to earn their witchcraft badge, but when it’s time to leave one of the girls takes a tricksie back to the real world with her. The fun begins with it.
A great illustrated book with a magical story.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for a copy.

I loved reading this part in the Moonlight Magic Club series, just as the other books it was easy and enjoyable to read.
