Sponsored post | Discover the Wizardy World of Roots of Fantastical Matters

Iona Bower February 7, 2022

A brand new and completely unique literary adventure of fictitious enchantment and factual discovery


If you’re looking for clever ways to inspire your children to read enthusiastically and learn independently, the team behind International Elf Service has the perfect solution, and the most remarkable take on storytelling with Roots of Fantastical Matters.

 
 

A magical archive

Picture the most extraordinarily magical place. A fantastical world hidden behind a secret door in a spellbound forest. A wizardom where all things incredible and enchanting are carefully collected and stored in the most amazing archive of all time – from High Sorcerer’s potion recipes to Dragon Trainer diaries, Wizard lessons, Elf and Fairy shenanigans and every spell that’s ever been abracadabra’d!

 

Fascinating facts

Watch and enjoy the look on the faces of your young readers (even the more reluctant ones!) as they find these intriguing and interactive bundles of gossip-filled newsletters and wacky materials hidden mysteriously around their home every month. Delivered by parents (as if by magic) to curious children between 6 and 12 years of age.

 

Captivating characters

Roots of Fantastical Matters is an exploration into a top-secret underground realm, following a quirky collection of captivating characters including Twig (a Tree Elf and this year’s Trainee Archivist) and Great Spectacolore – the Infinite Wizard – who gives a sneak peek into what lies behind the magic. 

 

And a clever way to learn

However, it isn’t just an enchanting journey along the winding Conundrum Corridors, through the Library Labyrinth and into the Mystical Studies and Ologies Laboratory. Because cleverly hidden within this collection of cryptic chronicles, is a treasure trove of interactive STREAM-based activities (Science, Technology, Reading, Engineering, Art and Maths) that encourage children to create, explore, research, experiment and calculate ‘matters’ in the real world. It’s a perfect escape into the lands of fantastical faction – revealing the mysteries of magic while celebrating the wonders of learning.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
