A Mighty Girl Book of the Year With magical animals, science, mystery, and adventure -- the series Zoey and Sassafras has something for everyone!

Can they figure out a way to fix things before the baby caterflies hatch? Each story in the Zoey and Sassafras series features a new magical animal with a problem that must be solved using science.
