    About this ebook

    A New York Public Library Best Books for Kids 2017 Selection
    A Mighty Girl Book of the Year
    Illinois Monarch Award Nominee 2018-2019
    Florida SSYRA Book Award Nominee 2018-2019

    With magical animals, science, mystery, and adventure -- the brand new series Zoey and Sassafras has something for everyone! Easy-to-read language and illustrations on nearly every page make this series perfect for a wide range of ages.

    In the first book of this series, Zoey discovers a glowing photo and learns an amazing secret. Injured magical animals come to their backyard barn for help! When a sick baby dragon appears, it’s up to Zoey and Sassafras to figure out what’s wrong. Will they be able to help little Marshmallow before it’s too late?

    Each story in the Zoey and Sassafras series features a new magical animal with a problem that must be solved using science. There isn't a set formula for each book; Zoey sometimes needs to run experiments, while other times she needs to investigate a mystery, and yet other times she needs to do research. Zoey models how to keep a science journal through her handwritten entries in each story. Each story is complete with a glossary of the kid-friendly definitions for scientific terms used. The series highlights child-led inquiry science and the topics covered align with both Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards.

      Cute! I like the magical animals, Zoey's scientific explorations, and her problem solving when things get over her head.
    • 4/5
      Zoey loves to explore with her cat Sassafras and one day before her mom leaves town they discover that her mom helps take care of magical creatures in their barn. Once Zoey's mom knows she can see the creatures she puts Zoey in charge of any animals that might show up when she's on her trip. The first animal Zoey has to take care of? A baby dragon...and by experimenting and reading and trying she starts to help him get better. Super cute early chapter book incorporating science and magic! Text is not overly girly so when the boys finish other dragon series they would definitely like this if they tried it.
    • 4/5
      Cute fantasy that reminds me of Bruce Coville books but for a new (and younger) era.
    • 4/5
      My APK class absolutely loved this first big chapter book. They enjoyed the pictures and seeing what would happen next. They asked very good questions about how Zoey and her mom were able to see the animals, but her dad wasn’t and what other kinds of magical animals there might be out there. Will definitely pick up the next book in the series for them in the future.
