The Miraculous Sweetmakers Series

by Natasha Hastings , Alex T. Smith

(26 reviews)

This historical fiction middle-grade series has a touch of magic and all the beauty of friendship for fans of Tamzin Merchant, Abi Elphinstone and Anna James. It also has gorgeous illustrations throughout by the wonder that is Alex T. Smith.

This series takes readers aged 8+ back to the 1600s, when London is facing the Great Frost. And our story begins as two best friends, Thomasina and Anne, set their hearts on finding the magical Frost Fair, so as to win a wish as their prize. As their adventures unfold, they will discover Father Winter's kingdom, learn how to run their on sweet shop, find not only Thomasina's brother but also their dear friend, who both mysteriously disappear, and deal with an evil Sea Queen.

Of course, starting this series during the winter season will make it feel extra special, as it has all the fuzzy-feeling vibes we love in feel-good middle grade books.
