Ada and the Magic Mirror

Coming of age

Fantasy

One magical mirror, two Adas, and a whirlwind adventure in identity and courage!

Ada loves nothing more than reading in the quiet of her attic. But one day, her reflection in an old mirror speaks to her—and magic leaps off the page and into her life. Mirror-Ada looks just like her, but she’s bold, loud, and fearless. What if this reflection could take her place in everything Ada doesn’t want to do? At first, it seems like the perfect plan… until Ada realises that some things can’t be avoided—and that growing up means finding the courage to be yourself.

A captivating story that explores identity and self-discovery through the playful lens of a magical double.
Combines fantasy, humor and heartfelt emotion—ideal for young readers ready to question who they are and want to become.
