About the Book Three children discover a map that leads them into magical adventure in this first book of Jane Yolen's thrilling Tartan Magic series Book Synopsis Welcome to Scotland, where magic runs through the land like the stripes in the colorful Scottish tartans. Everyone and everything here, it seems, has some wizardry--old folks at rest homes, dusty old card games, even cowardly dogs. The only ones without magic are American twins Jennifer and Peter, and they're the ones who need it most.
