We are so fortunate that we could feature Dhonielle Clayton's middle grade debut, The Marvellers, in our May box. In this enchanting new fantasy series, we follow Ella Durand as the first Conjuror to attend the Arcanum Training Institute. The Institute is a magic school in the clouds where Marvellers from around the world practice their cultural arts.
Read on for an interview with Dhonielle Clayton to discover what inspired her to write The Marvellers, which Arcanum Paragon she'd want to be placed in, and what she'd bring to life, if she could!
