Ivy and Bean
by Annie Barrows (Author) Sophie Blackall (Illustrator)
From the moment their parents introduced them to one another, Ivy and Bean were both sure they would never like each other, but when Bean finds herself in a pickle, Ivy helps out with a magical spell. The results are glorious: Bean's big sister Nancy loses her mind, and Ivy and Bean become best friends forever.
