Ivy is distraught when her royal witchy parents disappear during a terrible storm. She goes searching for them with the help of her "familiar", a shapeshifting wolf boy. A friendly witch examines dust left behind from the disappearance and discovers that there are traces of "taint", a cursed ingredient. They travel to the land of the Cunning Folk, and get help from a boy with a flying carpet. But can they discover who cursed their parents before it's too late and more people start to disappear?

I loved this cute story! Ivy is such a sweet character. The adventure is a lot of fun as they follow the clues, and we get to see some of imaginative places and people of this magical land. Even though the characters are witches and they like creepy things, this book is not creepy at all. There is a cozy atmosphere and adorable characters, even in the midst of the cobwebs and dusty castles.

The writing is simple for this age group, but there is a sweet charm to each page that I enjoyed even as a grown-up reader. The illustrations are beautiful too! Such cute artwork!
