Mark Manuel“Siyona Abbey’s enthralling work of fiction, Every End has a New Beginning, is like following a secret trail in some hillside or forest and discovering a hidden door that magically opens onto Toyland or Fairyland. It’s like stepping into an enchanted world full of mystery and adventure where Princes slays dragons and fight ogres to rescue beautiful Princesses locked up in castles and friendly characters like Noddy, Brer Rabbit, Moon-Face, Mr. Pink-Whistle, the Saucepan Man and Mr. Meddle compete for attention against delightful mythological creatures such as fairies, goblins, elves, pixies and gnomes. Siyona at 9, an age when most kids are reading Harry Potter, is imaginatively penning her own fiction that begins with ‘Once upon a time’ and ends with ‘Happily ever after’. Through which she meets all her favourite fairytale personalities and after getting to know them, becomes their friend. Truly magic is real for those who believe it is real. Her book is creatively illustrated with colourful sketches and is written in an easy and comfortable chitchat manner that makes it a pleasure to read. But what is more important is that Siyona Abbey’s Every End has a New Beginning inspires her readers to start new beginnings themselves.”
