Molly Moon ferma il mondo

Her powers feel both fun and unpredictable, but I wonder what inspired the specific way she learns to control them. Did the author base this on any real-world magic or folklore?

The adventure picks up again, but I felt some parts dragged — was that intentional to build character or tension?

It’s a sweet message, especially for middle-grade readers, but I’m curious if the story was always meant to focus on that or if it evolved during writing.
