The Diary of Wiska Wildflower: The Crystal Cave

What it is: Wiska Wildflower is back! The second book in Harriet Muncaster’s enchanting Wiska Wildflower series follows Wiska on her first school expedition to Wiskling Mountain - complete with map reading, camping, foraging and a secret mission to find a rare starflower. Told in diary format and packed with beautiful full-colour illustrations, it’s a magical adventure filled with friendship, courage and a little bit of danger.

Why we love it: We love the mix of adventure, magic and friendship in this series, and the diary format makes it such an easy and engaging read. Wiska is a brilliant character to follow as she navigates new experiences, tricky friendships and unexpected adventures, with lots of beautiful illustrations along the way.

A lovely choice for fans of Isadora Moon and anyone who enjoys a little bit of magic, mischief and woodland adventure. This is book two, following the bestselling The Diary of Wiska Wildflower: The New School.

We recommend this book for independent readers from the age of 7 years and above.
