Maggie loves monsters, but she is bored of her toy monsters and would much prefer a real one to play with. Perhaps on her trip around Scotland she'll find one! Using her trusty binoculars, Maggie discovers an abundance of Scottish wildlife. A highland coo, a grey seal and even a golden eagle, but they are not the monster she's searching for. Eventually Maggie spots the perfect monsters to play with, but it's not quite what she expected!

Maggie's Magical Islands charts the adventures of Maggie and her mum as they 'hop' from island to island - encountering wildlife, experiencing variable weather and dealing with a few accommodation disasters along the way! On her adventures, Maggie highlights the joy of simple outdoor pleasures, along with the importance of being environmentally aware: when we look after our world, nature provides us with the greatest treasures. Maggie and her mum travel by ferry, campervan, foot and pushbike to explore the standing stones of Arran, the sandy beaches of Islay and Duart Castle on the Isle of Mull. Maggie goes wild swimming in the fairy pools of Skye, spends the night in a lighthouse on Lewis and is wowed by the spectacular Northern Lights.
