Her dream comes true when she meets the protective Remus McPhee - the elf fairy- who is one of the guardians of the Bookshelf Dimension. They go on a whimsical adventure and Molly meets all sorts of fictional friends especially the bossy braggart: Elektra Night.

    Ridhwaana Jarmal

    Ridhwaana Jarmal’s first book, ‘Guardians of the Bookshelf Dimension- The Founder’s First Mission’, was published in March 2013. This encouraged her to write the next part of Molly’s great adventures in the Dimension, producing new dilemmas and bringing up new people to meet in her wondrous journey into the unknown. Sometimes she portrays her stories in the context of a poem. Recently, she entered one of her poems, “Murder in the Madhouse” into Poetry Rivals, a yearly creative writing contest held across the UK. The poem is now being published in the Poetry Rivals Collection – Rhyme or Reason 2013. Ridhwaana enjoys writing imaginative stories for teens her own age to read and recommend to others.

      CHAPTER 1

      The Unfortunate Life

      Of A Munro

      The Munro family moved on to Salver Road last summer and had been the neighbourhood’s gossip ever since. It had been Munro this and Munro that. They were the only thing around there to talk about, as nobody else living in the area was anywhere near as wealthy as they were.

      From the start, most of the members of the Munro family, however, got on with their lives as usual and never cared a bit about what the other people thought of them. They would complete their daily routines and had what was to them a very peaceful and happy life. It was only Molly Munro—the family’s only child—who didn’t think it was great to be well known.

      Molly was mostly adored by her teachers and by the elderly in her community. You would think that being cherished by adults for every second of your life would be a dream for all girls, but sometimes it can be very irritating.

      Molly, you’re such a wonderful role model! blurted out Mrs Heckerman in class one day. A cacophony of snorts and sniggers echoed around the room. Molly ignored the compliment and carried on with her work. She lowered her head and carefully studied the insides of the plant that was laid out on her desk while listening to the last of the giggling fading away.

      Stem, she murmured, writing the word next to her diagram of a plant’s stem.

      Molly eyed the wall clock near to the classroom door, happy at the sight of the moving hand, and then met the gaze of her best friend seated under it. Molly gave a look that clearly meant that she wanted to go as soon as possible; she didn’t want to have to suffer a rain of laughter pouring down on her again.

      The bell rang and the whole class rose from their seats, eager to leave.

      Class! squawked Mrs Heckerman. Your homework will be to explain the functions of a plant! she announced.

      Mrs Heckerman was five feet tall with a slim waist but plump legs. She had a strong resemblance to a pear. She was a brunette, with her hair cut above her shoulders and curling at the end. The way she dressed was repulsive. Brown and orange shorts! the children in her classes would exclaim. Urgh! Molly always thought that her science teacher would suit blonde hair better, to blend in with her nails, which glowed fantastically in shocking pink.

      What lesson do we have now? asked Molly, wiggling her loose upper incisor tooth with her tongue as she trudged out into the corridor.

      Uhhh . . . English I think, replied Pandora, stuffing bits of loose paper into her bag.

      Pandora Macrolide was Molly’s best and only friend. This was because Pandora never teased Molly. With other people, it was the other way.

      It was not that Molly was the only person being laughed at, however. Pandora had been ridiculed ever since nursery. She had bright red hair, which she normally wore tied up in a scruffy French plait, and she had a pale face with loads of freckles. Molly always thought that she looked pretty in some sort of way and often wondered why people made fun of her.

      Oh no, we have assembly first actually, corrected Pandora, looking in the direction of the main hall. Molly groaned in response. The last thing she wanted at the moment was to listen to her headmaster drone on about good citizenship.

      Waiting to be praised again, Molly? said a mean, little voice.

      Molly whipped around and saw a light-skinned girl with raven-black hair. There was a sinister grin planted on her face.

      I bet it’s really nice hearing your name about a thousand times.

      What do you want, Sapphire? Molly asked, curling her lips.

      I want to know why you’re such a big, fat show-off, responded Sapphire, giggling at the look on her face. And I want to know why your mum brought a hippo of a baby into this school, she continued.

      Molly’s face went lava red. She muttered something that sounded like How dare you?, but it came out like it was one word. You’re such a . . . a . . . a . . . She hesitated for a second, and then it was as if a light bulb had suddenly popped up above her head. "An ugly horse!" screamed Molly, at the top of her voice.

      It was too late; Sapphire had already stridden off to her friends, her thumb and her index finger on her right hand shaped to look like an L.

      Molly swore, and her face went purple. How could Sapphire be so mean?

      Molly opened the door to the hall violently—looking murderous—and entered with Pandora, nervously, trailing behind.

      After the assembly, a crowd of students spilled out of the door and went to their next lesson. Molly and Pandora shuffled out behind this herd and went up the stairs.

      Done your homework, Panda? asked Molly while she stuffed some
