Biff, Chip, Kipper and friends have grown a little older and haven’t had a magic key adventure for a long time. They find an old box and decide to sell it at the school fair but this opens a much bigger and more in depth adventure for the whole group!

The children find the magic key and an old dusty box. A horrible man tries to steal it but Mr Mortlock helps them get away.

The creepy man with the white skin looks wrinkly and has cool powers.

I like the illustrations as well.

I liked the bit when Mr Mortlock used a video game remote control to make the man disappear.

I would definitely recommend it to someone else.
