"Roll up, roll up for the most exciting ride of your lives Choose your favourite pony and let the Magic Carousel whisk you away on an amazing adventure "
Megan loves ponies, so when she spots the Magic Carousel at the fairground she can't wait to hop aboard And Sparkle the circus pony, with his beautiful twinkling pink headdress, is the perfect pony for her to choose.
As the Carousel turns in a blur of glitter and dazzling colours, Megan realises that she has left the fairground far behind - and is riding a real, live pony in a real circus tent
Megan soon discovers that the circus is in trouble - can Megan and Sparkle save the day and be the stars of the show?
For me, it’d be 3 stars, but for the target audience, 4 stars. Megan is afraid of ponies after falling off and, while riding a carousel, is transported to a magical world where she joins a circus to perform tricks. The usual tension and failures until she finds success.
A magic carousel transports its rider to a new place to complete a mission. The horse goes too and magically comes alive. In this first book, Megan is transported to a circus with her white horse. The mission is to perform a show-stopping horseback routine for the circus finale.
Cute enough. Good for the sparkly crowd. Not my first choice, but there are much worse series out there.
