ⓘ About Jacqueline West
Things turn strange when Olive discovers some old spectacles with magic powers when going through Ms. McMartin’s items. When Olive puts the glasses on, she is able to see through old portraits, and the paintings lining her new home come to life. It is through the spectacles that Olive meets Morton, an undersized boy with a temper bigger than his size. Morton is part of a painting, and while Olive initially dismisses him as just a figure, she soon discovers he is more that she thinks. Olive and Morton form an unusual alliance and embark on an adventure together. The duo will be joined by Horatio, Harvey, and Leopold, three talking cats who know more about the house than everyone else. Jaye is immediately drawn to the new boy, Rob. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of The Books of Elsewhere Books series, Jacqueline West has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
