Wizard and Wart in Trouble

Wizard and Wart #3

by Janice L. Smith, Janice L. Smith

Wizard and Wart are back in action! Zounds the vulture has broken his usual silence to announce, "Trouble is coming!" and Wizard and his dog Wart are braced for the worst. With a big book of magic spells and a lot of sandwiches, they think they're ready for anything. But when Trouble finally arrives, even the unflappable Wizard and the ever-worried Wart are surprised!

Paul Meisel's comic watercolors are the ideal match for Janice Lee Smith's third zany story of magical mayhem.

Best I-can-read book I've ever read. I wish I didn't know how to read so I could discover how to read all over again with this ZANy book - whipped cream! And cold snaps! Ice zings! Awesome! I thought only Denys Cazet could make me laugh this much. I was wrong.

Juvenile nonsense. Unexpectedly complete, as the chapters are not separate episodes but part of an arc. A GR reader compared the effect on her to that of the writing of Denys Cazet so now I have to consider adding more stories to my to-read lists!

[Dolly]

This is a fun book for young children to start reading chapter books. The chapters are short and there are a lot of colorful pictures. The story is silly, but entertaining, and our girls loved it when they discovered who 'Trouble' is. We enjoyed reading this book together.

[Rosa Cline]

This was a fun 'play on words' book. many descriptive words throughout the book and a really fun twist at the end. They find out that even with spells they still can't get away from 'trouble' but in the end it's really not as bad as they imagined.

Good level 3. Kiddo enjoyed it.
