If you loved how Jerry, Jimmy, Kathleen, and Mabel tackle the ring’s chaos together—whether corralling the Ugly-Wuglies or navigating the maze—you’ll click with the Pevensies as they stumble through the wardrobe and unite with Mr. Tumnus and the Beavers to set things right in Narnia. Like the castle gang, the four siblings’ strengths bounce off one another in a brisk, warmly adventurous quest.

Remember how the ring’s hit-or-miss wishes turn Mabel invisible at the worst moments and bring shop-window dummies to life? In Half Magic, four siblings find a coin that grants only half a wish—cue gloriously botched adventures, from half-journeys to hilariously partial transformations—capturing the same spirited, good-natured chaos you enjoyed.

If the statues stirring, suits of armor shifting, and garden enchantments in The Enchanted Castle charmed you, you’ll relish Tolly’s gentle encounters with the ghost-children of Green Knowe. The magic murmurs through an old English house and its grounds—subtle, intimate, and as matter-of-factly wondrous as Mabel’s ring making the ordinary feel spell-touched.

If you grinned at the witty scrapes—like the children’s accidental invisibility and the riotous Ugly-Wuglies—Jones’s tale of feuding step-siblings who inherit chemistry sets that cause magical mayhem will hit the same sweet spot. Like your favorite castle capers, the jokes bloom from chaos at home, with banter as nimble as Nesbit’s.

If the ring’s powers felt delightfully unpredictable—turning wishes sideways, animating statues, and refusing to be pinned down—Mary Poppins offers that same unbottled enchantment. With a nanny who slides into chalk pictures, converses with stars, and never explains a thing, each episode carries the same airy, inexplicable wonder that kept you guessing in the castle.
