What is The Izzy the Inventor series by Zanna Davidson about?

Written from 2023 onwards, Zanna Davidson’s illustrated chapter-book series follows Izzy, a science-loving young inventor who is whisked into Fairytale Land. Alongside Henry the unicorn, she tackles magical problems involving curses, time-travelling gnomes, ogres, elves, fairies and princesses, using experiments, ingenuity and teamwork rather than spells. Each adventure builds on the same lively blend of STEM and fantasy, with simple activities to try at home. Best suited to readers aged five and over, especially budding inventors and fairy-tale fans. Mild peril, spooky creatures and comic villainy feature, without graphic violence.
