Alexander & Augustus Wembley's Field Guide by C.K. Gyllerstrom and Annie Stegg Gerard

The Collectors' Consortium: Alexander & Augustus Wembley's Field Guide is the first book in a series that follows the expeditions of young adventurers during the nineteenth century on their quests to find and preserve endangered magical creatures. From the Back Cover: The Summer of 1883 began just like any other for Alexander and Augustus Wembley, that is, until the arrival of their enigmatic uncle and the death of a mysterious stranger changed everything… Through recently discovered journals, young readers are finally able to delve into the secrets of the Collectors’ Consortium and explore firsthand accounts of a world filled with enchanted creatures, mysterious animals, and maybe even a little magic. Join eleven-year-old twins, Alexander and Augustus, their younger cousin Aurelia, and a group of young adventurers as their summer holidays are transformed into a daring quest to find and preserve endangered magical creatures. And, when a distant power threatens to disrupt the delicate balance between the enchanted and ordinary worlds, the successes and failures of the Consortium’s youngest members tremendously influence the fate of both realms. 7 Original Illustrations by Annie Stegg Gerard.
