ONE JAR OF MAGIC

Narrator Cassandra Morris establishes a youthful voice for Rose, who begins collecting magic now that she has turned 12 years old. Since her father was naturally gifted at the task, it is expected that it will come easy to Rose, too. When she struggles, she starts to question everything, including her father's passion for magic and even magic itself. Morris captures the innocence and warmth in Rose's voice, which contrasts with her father's arrogance as his true character is revealed and domestic issues begin to surface. Listeners who enjoy rich character development and magic will be intrigued by Rose and her journey in this coming-of-age story. M.D. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2021]
