📚🍭Let’s make a carnival-inspired snack to enjoy with Moko Magic: Carnival Chaos! #ad You all know how much Eddie loves learning about new mythologies! Now from Tracey Baptiste, the best-selling author of the Jumbies series, comes an Afro-Caribbean-inspired story about three cousins who discover they are mokos —protector spirits— during carnival season in Brooklyn. @TraceyBaptisteWrites is a native of Trinidad and brings its history and culture to life. It’s perfect for mythology lovers like Eddie and it has just the right amount of creepiness to keep you glued to the pages! As the annual carnival celebrations over Labor Day weekend begin, really strange things begin to happen. A ball of feathers in the basement turns into a creature that squeaks and rolls around. When Misty and her cousins eat pieces of mango anchar, flames shoot out of their mouths. Most disturbing of all, Misty begins to see visions of the future–scary visions that soon come true. Misty discovers that she and her cousins come from a long line of mokos, people who have special powers meant to help them protect their community. Misty can see impending danger, Aiden can heal, and Brooke has crazy physical strength. The trio is just learning about their skills when Misty senses something watching her. And then each of the carnival events is disrupted by a different disaster. Some kind of evil force is clearly trying to stop the festivities. But why? And will moko magic be enough to save the day? While we wait to find out, we are bringing extra fun to our reading day by making homemade cotton candy to enjoy. This was so fun, easy and delicious to make!
