Book description

Bored and unhappy, Amy Day starts to write in the old green book. She invents Amaryllis Loveday, daughter of the Fourth Castle in the magical land of Ankoor. Bored and resentful that her mother insists she behave like a lady, Amaryllis starts to write the story of Amy Day, a girl who has all the freedom she yearns for. Overnight, they switch places. Now Amy must deal with the magic of Ankoor while Amaryllis must cope with the dishonest plans of Caz and the Gang. Can both girls survive to return to their own worlds?
