The Magic Mirror Of The Mermaid Queen - Plot & Excerpts
Miss Van Loon’s Big Book of Rules I told Astris about Lincoln Center the next morning. Her whiskers quivered like butterfly wings. “How very exciting,” she said. “You’ll wear the silver dress, of course, and I’ll see if I can fix up Satchel a bit. You’ll be needing a carriage. And a cloak. Oh, and a ticket.” Her pink nose wrinkled. “I can’t magic up a ticket.” “It’s all set,” I said. “This Lincoln Center changeling said he’d fix it up for me.” The whiskers went into overdrive. “A mortal boy has invited you to the ballet? Oh, dear. Is this a Date?” I could hear the capital letter in her voice. “The Fairy Nurse told me about Dates. Is he going to make you pay him with a kiss?” I went hot, then cold, then hot again. “It’s not a date,” I managed at last. “It’s a quest. Sheesh, Astris. He’s a friend. I wish I hadn’t said anything. I shouldn’t have said anything. It’s probably against Rule Three.” The whiskers went still. “Rule Three’s very convenient, isn’t it?”
