Je nejvyšší čas, aby třída Kouzel vzhůru nohama vyrazila na několikadenní školní výlet! Míří do dračího azylu, kde se ošetřovatelé starají o nejrůznější druhy draků, kteří by sami v přírodě nepřežili. Co se o nich děti zajímavého dozvědí? Největší problémy na výletě mají Andres, který se musí vypořádat s tím, že stále nekontrolovatelně létá, a samozřejmě Nory, jež zjistí, že do dračího azylu se nevydali jen žáci její Blátochmurské školy, ale i studenti Akademie mudrců. Navíc žáky Akademie doprovází ředitel školy, což není nikdo jiný než Noryin otec, s nímž má Nory nanejvýš komplikovaný vztah. Jak se budou děti z Akademie chovat k dětem s netradičními kouzelnými schopnostmi z Blátochmur? Budou se jim vysmívat, nebo se naopak skamarádí? A co Nory a otec? Najdou k sobě cestu, nebo budou raději předstírat, že k sobě ani nepatří?

Někteří žáci školy se dětí ze třídy Kouzel vzhůru nohama bojí. Jiní jim jenom říkají „ujetiny“. Ale Nory a její kamarádi z Kouzel vzhůru nohama se tím nedají odradit. Vždyť se blíží celoškolní soutěž talentů! Jenomže… Nory se obává, že ji její změničská magie zradí a rozzlobí tatínka. Pepper má strach, že její schopnosti Zlodivocha splaší a zaženou všechna zvířata v soutěži. Bax má několik výjimečných nových magických dovedností, jenže ty taky dovedou být výjimečně trapné. A Elliott tuší, že špeh Jiskrňáků se snaží odhalit tajemství toho, co třída KVN připravuje na soutěž talentů, a obrátit to proti nim. Aby se předvedly a ukázaly trochu magie, musí dát děti z Kouzel vzhůru nohama dohromady kapelu… a najít správnou kombinaci talentů, která všem vytře zrak!

Nory Horaceové je devět let. Je vynalézavá, statečná a má ráda sušenky s arašídovým máslem. Taky se umí proměnit v mnoho různých zvířat. Bohužel má ale Nořino nadání měnit podobu pár drobných nedostatků. A když propadne na akademii kouzel, kterou vede její otec, musí Nory nastoupit do státní školy. Tam se seznámí s partou dětí, jejichž kouzlo je… no, úplně jiné. Nová zábavná série od trojice autorek knižních hitů je kronikou průšvihů Nory a jejích praštěných kamarádů, kteří potvrzují, že kouzla vzhůru nohama jsou rozhodně lepší než kouzla, jak mají být.

Frankie Landau-Banks at age 14: Debate Club. Her father's "bunny rabbit." A mildly geeky girl attending a highly competitive boarding school. Frankie Landau-Banks at age 15: A knockout figure. A sharp tongue. A chip on her shoulder. And a gorgeous new senior boyfriend: the supremely goofy, word-obsessed Matthew Livingston. Frankie Landau-Banks. No longer the kind of girl to take "no" for an answer. Especially when "no" means she's excluded from her boyfriend's all-male secret society. Not when her ex-boyfriend shows up in the strangest of places. Not when she knows she's smarter than any of them. When she knows Matthew's lying to her. And when there are so many, many pranks to be done. Frankie Landau-Banks, at age 16: Possibly a criminal mastermind. This is the story of how she got that way.

As a girl, Frankie knows she is supposed to play by the rules, but the rules were made by old boys for boys and therefore are not her rules to begin with. She decides to take matters into her own hands, outsmarting the secret all-male society at her rich kid boarding school by tricking the members, including her own boyfriend, into believing her increasingly outrageous commands are their leader's. Undaunted by her male peers, Frankie contests the old-fashioned idea that it's the boys who rule the school proving that girls are not to be dismissed - even by her own father, a former member of the all-male society himself!

The book explores the intersection of art and politics in Catalonia, highlighting Jordi Pujol's 1981 speech that celebrated Catalan artists like Tàpies, Miró, Dalí, and Picasso. It emphasizes Tàpies's significant impact on the cultural landscape and contrasts it with Artur Mas's 2014 address regarding the independence referendum, where Tàpies's painting Les quatre cròniques served as a powerful backdrop. This juxtaposition illustrates how art can reflect and influence sociopolitical contexts over time, enriching the understanding of Catalan identity and heritage.
