Ophelia Brown and the Unseen

A Whimsical Fantasy Adventure for Young Readers Ages 9-13 (Ophelia Brown Series Book 1)

There’s more to the world than what you can see.

Ophelia Brown’s favorite thing to do this summer has been to go straight to Pinella Pass Baptist Church, head into the musty old basement, and hang out with the ancient quilting ladies who spend way too much of their time there. After all, Mama Maisie, the proverbial ringleader of the quilting ladies, knows everything there is to know about the most exciting thing ever: magic. To Ophelia and her friends, sacrificing the fresh summer air seems like a small price to pay for the sake of learning all about the Unseen Realm.

But not everything is fun and games in the Unseen Realm like it is in the church basement. Ophelia returns home one day to find her family gone and her house surrounded by goblins, and even though Mama Maisie says she has it under control, Ophelia can’t let her go after them alone. With sheer determination and her faithful friends by her side, Ophelia sets off on an exhilarating quest to set her family free from a world they can’t even see.  

From the enchanting pages of this middle-grade fantasy comes a world of childhood games turned into living, breathing adventures. A perfect pick for fans of The Spiderwick Chronicles and Fablehaven.

This is the cutest story! If you enjoy middle-grade fantasy “feel good” stories with the same feel as the Spiderwick Chronicles, this is definitely a book for you.

Ophelia Brown and the Unseen, is next level imagination and creativity. It had me flipping through the pages wanting to know more and more about this Unseen realm, and about all the magic in this book. The author did a really good job with detail and description and context, it is easy and wonderful to imagine what this realm is like, even if it is unseen after all.. I dearly recommend this book to all readers who are in for good adventures❤️

Which one of us as a child has not imagined that there was more around us than we could see? That if we could just find the right portal, spell, or spyglass, we would find creatures and creation other-worldly? Julia Witmer has given us a spyglass into another realm.
