“The Magilicious Journeys” is a book that fires the imagination of the reader just like a firework. It feels like being in an imagination rollercoaster that recharges you with curiosity and positive energy. In addition introduces the destination’s local tradition, attractions and values in a very natural way and easily absorbed by children’s fantasy.”

a very great combination of situations and speed of events.
Such a book was missing and perhaps it is the first of its kind, written for Butrint and any site in Albania.

How MAJESTIC! Simon and Olivia are having exciting new adventures in London while they try to help a new friend in trouble… the Magilicious Journeys continue! We really enjoyed reading about their – unfortunately – short, but memorable trip, and we can only recommend it to everyone who has always been enchanted by this marvellous city! We will definitely try also Nonna Viola’s famous Apple Pie!

I first took this journey myself twenty-two years ago when as an archaeologist I went to Albania to work at an extraordinary place to which I have continually returned to both excavate and guide visitors to its past...
