My earliest reading memoryMy maternal grandmother, a primary school teacher, taught me to read at a very early age. While I can’t recall learning to read, I remember that the earliest books I fell in love with were “readers” from her school classroom, before I was even old enough to attend school. Having easy and early access to books shaped my whole life.My favourite book growing upThe Westing Game by Ellen Raskin. I read it when I was around 10, and it was my first experience of a story that was also a mystery or a…

The two evil sisters open up the show trapped inside of a snow globe and employ a clever tactic — using the few resources available to them — to eventually be noticed. It seems like Dorothy and Ada Wheeler have been stuck there for quite some time. Luckily for them, Bode finds the corresponding key in the fridge and the family is once again playing with magic they don't quite understand; therefore, these cloaked evildoers are released back upon the world and make things a nightmare for the Locke family by…

As the oldest Locke sibling, Tyler had always taken the lead when it came to magic, the keys, and making plans.
