Summary

Yesterday Crumb is no ordinary girl。 She was born with fox ears that have cursed her to a lonely life working in the circus and her origins are a complete mystery。 But she is about to escape into the adventure of a lifetime when she learns that she’s a strangeling who’s lost her magic。

Taken in by Miss Dumpling the flamboyant tea witch, Yesterday is introduced to a magical, walking teashop filled with fantastical customers, a flying teapot turtle called Pascal and powerful spells in every teacup!

Yesterday starts to rediscover her magic and to feel a sense of belonging。 But a mysterious figure of darkness is working hard to ensure her new life comes crashing down – and it all starts with a deadly shard of ice in Yesterday’s heart…

But there’s nothing that can’t be solved with a pot of tea, a slice of cake and a BIG dash of magic!

The first in a new fantasy series for readers aged 8-12, about a girl with fox ears who has never fitted in。 With adventure and magic in every teacup, this is perfect for fans of The Strangeworlds Travel Agency and Starfell。

The Perfect Brew Of Whimsy and Warmth。5 teacups out of 5。Yesterday crumb is no ordinary girl。 Her fox ears have made her an attraction at the circus where she was left as a baby。 She has been living her life in a cage when not performing for the gaupers。 That is until she is rescued by Miss Dumpling and her familiar Madrigal。 The book follows Yesterday and her new friends as she learns about magic and has to solve a problem she encountered pretty much straight away in the book。Alice's Adventures The Perfect Brew Of Whimsy and Warmth。5 teacups out of 5。Yesterday crumb is no ordinary girl。 Her fox ears have made her an attraction at the circus where she was left as a baby。 She has been living her life in a cage when not performing for the gaupers。 That is until she is rescued by Miss Dumpling and her familiar Madrigal。 The book follows Yesterday and her new friends as she learns about magic and has to solve a problem she encountered pretty much straight away in the book。Alice's Adventures In Wonderland vibes。Fantabulous Magic system。Great main character。Quick-witted side characters。Beautifully crazy dialogue - Miss Dumpling's sayings!A moving tea shop。Awesome villain。A brilliant twist。I absolutely loved this book as it was so easy to get lost in this beautifully created new world。 I am so looking forward to the other books in the series。 。。。more

FINISHED: Yesterday Crumb is truly an adventure! I absolutely adored the magic, the characters, the twists and turns in this。 I was proper taken by the messages about family, owning your identity and the TWIST AT THE END made my jaw drop。 This is going to be a massive hit!

I was absolutely delighted when a proof copy of this arrived in my house just before Christmas, because I’d been looking forward to it for a good while, and both the premise and the comp titles had me completely convinced I would love it。 Even more delightfully, I loved it EVEN MORE than I thought I would。 It is the story of Yesterday Crumb, a girl with fox ears who has grown up being goggled at in a circus cage, and what happens when she finds out she is in fact a witch when she is rescued by M I was absolutely delighted when a proof copy of this arrived in my house just before Christmas, because I’d been looking forward to it for a good while, and both the premise and the comp titles had me completely convinced I would love it。 Even more delightfully, I loved it EVEN MORE than I thought I would。 It is the story of Yesterday Crumb, a girl with fox ears who has grown up being goggled at in a circus cage, and what happens when she finds out she is in fact a witch when she is rescued by Miss Dumpling and moves into the magical tea shop Dwimmerly End, where a white raven familiar and a boy with a wolf’s nose also dwell, but unless she can remove the shard of ice placed in heart by a malevolent demon, this blissful new existence will only last a short time。 I cannot say enough good things about the worldbuilding in this。 I am obsessed with the concept of tea witches and loved learning all about that, but I also think the idea of confectionery witches is genius and I don’t think I’ve ever coveted a magical ability more in my entire life。 My other big highlight, other than the general gorgeously cosy yet epic vibe that is my absolute sweet spot with fantasy, were the characters。 Yesterday is just such a loveable protagonist despite her faults, and Madrigal has in just one book become one of my favourite ever animal characters because I just love his personality and his relationships with Miss Dumpling, Jack and Yesterday, which are all different but ultimately loving because he is the BEST。 Jack is such a sweet hearted soul with just a heart of gold; I especially Ioved how welcoming he is to Essie, and Miss Dumpling is such a fantastic, encouraging mentor! And Mr Weep, I mean, WHAT a villain。 There is a twist at the end of this I genuinely did not see coming even a little bit that is a trope that I just love in general, and I’m just absolutely desperate to see where this series goes next already because I think it’s going become an annual staple in my bookish calendar, like new installments of Starfell and Nevermoor are, and I’d also like to especially recommend this to anyone who loves the Eva Evergreen books。 。。。more

From the first chapter, I was instantly whisked on a magical adventure of heartwarming friendships and deliciously sinister villains which left me wanting another taste of Dwimmerly End’s world。 It is equal parts whimsical and spooky, bringing the loveable tone of classics such as ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory’ into an action-packed quest for the 21st century。 The cinematic moments, which particularly give it such a modern feel, had me cheering along with the whole Dwimmerly End family as they race against the kettle encountering a hilarious and fantastical cast of customers, faeries and beasts。Yesterday herself is as strong and fierce as she is kind and caring, making her wonderfully relatable。 However, it’s her journey of self-acceptance and her learning to conquer her inner demons that connected with me so closely, a theme I feel younger readers will really benefit from。 The rest of the crew each bring their own charm too; the endearingly innocent Jack Cadogan, the endlessly sarcastic Madrigal and of course the preposterous yet compassionate Miss Dumpling all make for a wonderfully wholesome team that you can’t help but wish to join。 An extra special mention to Yesterday/Jack’s scenes and especially the resulting shenanigans of Yesterday’s first tea brewing, which had me giggling so much I would have spilt my Earl Grey if I didn’t secretly prefer coffee!In all, Yesterday Crumb and the Storm in a Teacup felt like a modern fairytale that I’m sure other readers will delve into with as much joy and excitement as I did。 It truly left me longing to quit my day job, apply to work at Dwimmerly End and join in their adventures of tea, cake and confectionary delights! I can only hope that one day Dwimmerly End does indeed come to town! 。。。more
