Rich in imagination and accessible in tone, these novels invite middle-grade readers to imagine, dream, and see writing as a friendship-forming force.

Collectively, the collection challenges readers to think about what makes a story “real” and how the act of reading creates bonds across generations. It’s a celebration of curiosity, kindness, and the magic inside every page.

Book-by-Book Guide:
Tilly and the Bookwanderers
Eleven-year-old Tilly has lived above her grandparents’ bookshop since her mother disappeared. She loves slipping into stories and letting pages carry her away. When she discovers she can travel through books and talk with characters, a welcoming circle of readers pulls her into a mystery that tests courage, loyalty, and the power of friendship.

Tilly and the Lost Fairy Tales
As a bookwanderer, Tilly can travel inside books and speak with their characters. Yet a creeping magic leaks from fairy tales into the real world, stirring mischief and danger. She must balance school, family, and safeguarding the stories she loves before the boundaries between fiction and life blur beyond repair.

Tilly and the Map of Stories
Strange events ripple through Pages & Co. A visitor seeks a missing book, and memory itself falters. With the Underwoods pressing to control bookwandering, Tilly and her friends race to map the stories before reading becomes a tool of power rather than wonder.

The Book Smugglers
Milo lives aboard the Sesquipedalian, a magical train powered by imagination that travels between Story and the real world. Horatio’s dodgy book deals threaten the hidden world readers love. Milo’s journey blends mystery, friendship, and a devotion to libraries into a brisk, page-turning adventure.

The Treehouse Library
Milo Bolt is ready to be the hero of his own story. With Uncle Horatio trapped by a power-hungry Alchemist, he teams with Alessia to find a cure and save their friends. The quest expands the Pages & Co universe, celebrating courage, loyalty, and the magic that libraries ignite.
