Wulfie is back and this time he has to help Libby stop Veronika from selling Libby’s beloved home. Unfortunately the Wulfen who stops time when he sneezes and shrinks when wet has been hit by a powerful spray of water (thanks to one of Libby’s Dad’s crazy and useless inventions) and, now tiny, has been swept down a drain, and suddenly saving the house doesn’t matter unless Libby can save her friend.
I loved the previous three books in the series, but book 4 is probably my favourite. Wulfie is a friend any child would love, and let’s face it, lots of adults too. I’d love to find a purple Wulfen in the trunk in my room. TOTP had a bath without shrinking and I’ve heard him sneeze so if he has stopped time, I’ve been frozen along with everyone else and not noticed, so I have to admit he doesn’t have Wulfie’s skills (he has other ones!). Wulfie is a loveable character. Libby is too, a sweet child who puts up with a lot in the crazy world of these books.
Recommending for younger readers, and anyone who would like a magical friend, TOTP and I award Wulfie A Ghostly Tail an enthusiastic ten out of ten diamonds.

I think it’s the last one for a while, but the four books make a very nice series 🙂

What a gorgeous (and very royal-looking!) dog! Glad to know he can’t stop time with his sneezes: that would be awkward.
(Coincidentally, an author whose blog I follow posted pictures today of her dogs, who are, i believe the same breed as yours: https://www.rachelneumeier.com/2022/03/21/the-invictus-curse/ So beautiful!)

Thank you so much, he’s a handsome boy (and very well behaved too!), I’m told I spoil him but that can’t possibly be true! 🙂

Looks fun – and how did I miss the first few books?

It’s a fun series, perfect for 6-8 year olds (and people like me who still would love a talking animal friend!)

This one isn’t available through Follett, so I probably won’t read it. It’s hard enough to keep up with the releases from major publishers. I’m impressed that you read outside of those titles!

It’s from a small Irish publisher, and I’ve met the author at a couple of book events, but it’s a great series. I can’t keep up at all, and there are so many MG books on my TBR but I am lucky to get one read a week!

I’m not familiar with this series. Certainly one I would enjoy reading. Thanks for featuring the newest of the stories on MMGM today.

I’m not sure how widely available the series is outside Ireland, but I read recently the publisher had entered a distribution deal in the US so I hope it will be available there soon. Thanks for having me on MMGM!

This sounds like a great story for younger readers moving into MG. Like the character of Wulfie — very clever. Can’t find it on Amazon, but found book 3.

Book 3 is good too, I just love the character of Wulfie so much! Great for those younger readers, they’re quite short and the plots uncomplicated but they are great fun with that touch of the incredible 🙂
