Synopsis
Enchanta is the imaginative companion book to Pot of Gold. Enchanta is written for children eight to thirteen years of age but can be enjoyed by adults too. A third book Space Bugs, Earth Invasion completes the fantasy trilogy. In Enchanta, David (age 14) and Barbara (age 12) Morgan are flown from their New Jersey home to Enchanta by Wings, a white flying horse. In Enchanta, Barbara and David must unite three magical brothers Changer, Pretender and Inventor with their wizard father, King Wisher. The king had lost his wishing power when an earthquake opened up the land and Beneathians, a barbaric tribe, came from inside the earth to raid Enchanta. The Beneathians captured Wisher's wife, Queen Hope and took her to their world beneath the earth. Barbara and David reunite Wisher with Changer, Pretender and Inventor, and the six conduct a daring raid into Beneatha. The magical brothers perform many funny pranks and tricks on the Beneathians. In the end, Queen Hope is rescued, Wisher regains his powers, and Barbara and David are magically returned to their home in New Jersey.
