By chance, he comes across the Magic Magnifying Glass, which has been stolen from Saint Nicholas by his enemy.<\/p>\n<p>Across books, e-books and audio books, Vagan\u2019s series has sold more than 100,000 copies around the world. Originally written in French, the books and audio books are available in a variety of languages, including English, German, Italian and Spanish. There are five published novels, with a sixth currently being written.<\/p>\n<p>Sefi Carmel\u2019s Creation Entertainment Media and Magic Frame Animation previously worked together on the hit Netflix film <em>Secret Magic Control Agency<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t ask for a better partnership to turn Paul Martin\u2019s fantasy detective world into films fit for the screen,\u201d Vagan said. \u201cThe first book, and now film, introduces Paul to the world. The second, called <em>The Order of The Star of Bethlehem<\/em>, returns when Paul is grown up and has become a journalist, leading an investigation of a mysterious murder. The third,<em> The Crown of Seven Kingdoms<\/em>, delves even further into the battle between light, Saint Nicholas and darkness, Paul\u2019s enemy Arius. The fourth finds Paul nearing the end of his life, when his legacy depends on his grandson Jean-Pierre to save the world. The true meaning at the core of all of these stories, however, is that it is only love that can save the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lidia Chirita, head of sales and co-productions at Magic Frame Animation, noted, \u201cThis magical book series is much loved already by families and children across the world and lends itself perfectly to a wintery adventure to be told through animation. There is a beautiful depth to the universe Georges has created with Paul Martin, and we are looking forward to telling it to more audiences and using our signature animation styles and experienced creatives to paint a Christmas world for the screen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creation Entertainment Media and Magic Frame Animation have teamed to co-develop and produce film adaptations of Georges Alexander Vagan\u2019s Christmas-set book series\u00a0beginning with\u00a0Paul Martin and the Magic Magnifying Glass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":24352,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[6697,7028,7029,6698,7030,7031,7032,7033],"class_list":["post-24351","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-creation-entertainment-media","tag-georges-alexander-vagan","tag-lidia-chirita","tag-magic-frame-animation","tag-paul-martin-and-the-magic-magnifying-glass","tag-sefi-carmel","tag-the-crown-of-seven-kingdoms","tag-the-order-of-the-star-of-bethlehem","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
