The Cloud Horse Chronicles #1: Guardians of Magic Award-winning author by Chris Riddell (author) (UK edition)

A jewel of illustrated fantasy by a former Children’s Laureate. The magic of cloud horses makes wishes come true. But now it is dying… For as long as anyone can remember, children have made a wish on a cloud horse, never quite believing that it will come true. But now the future of magic is in danger. Dark enemies are gathering to destroy it – especially the magic of nature and of the ancient Forever Tree. Unless three brave children fight back and believe in the impossible, the cloud horses and all magic will be lost forever. Zam, Phoebe and Bathsheba don’t yet know how powerful they are…
