Aziza's Secret Fairy Door is a fun, magical adventure through Shimmerton, a magical world with fairy princesses and other mythical creatures. Aziza's adventure begins on her birthday when she receives a mysterious present. Inside the mysterious gift is a fairy door, which Aziza decorates herself. Once decorated, she follows the instructions to ensure the magical fairy door works. However, Aziza is left disappointed when the door does not work. Until one night, when Aziza is almost fast asleep, she hears a knocking sound. Little does Aziza know, she is about to embark on a great adventure!

Aziza's Secret Fairy Door is a great story for children 5-8. The book looks at many morals, for example, being kind and doing the right thing. It would make a great addition to a classroom or library within a KS1-lower KS2 setting. It looks like to be a fun and promising series!
