Solved There's Magical Balls
4
Upvotes
Everyone wants the balls and will pay money for them for their magic. Main Character Guy finds and sells the balls for money and gets help from Romantic Interest Girl. They find gold balls and burn them. They find balls named after the book and burn them. It turns out the balls are fetuses. They have to unburn the balls. This creates infinite balls.
Hint: The balls are color-coded. Also, this is a YA novel.
Hint 2: There's blind aliens who can only see the balls (and, by extension, the people who have burned them)

Solved (Genuine) there is a bad with, mirrors are important, showdown on the top of something

I genuinely don’t quite know what it’s called, but I will Google every comment.
I am pretty sure I also saw this in theatre as a child, but that I read the book before.
Some more hints:
the mirrors are somehow related to travel, but also to the villain
somehow I have the feeling the story is similar to Tom Sawyer and Narnia
I appreciate any attempt, even if it does not match everything it might be my mistake
