Eliza and the Rose Garden Mirror (Part II: The Vine Witch)

Eliza is bored—the kind of deep, skin-crawling boredom that makes the whole world feel grey. But when a walk through Portland’s Washington Park leads her to a forgotten rose garden and a mysterious old mirror, everything changes. Pulled into a strange, mirrored world full of odd creatures and creeping shadows, Eliza must find her way home—and uncover the secret of a magic that feeds on boredom itself.

A magical adventure about curiosity, courage, and seeing the world with new eyes. Perfect for kids who love mysterious worlds, enchanted objects, and brave heroes!
