James Fishwick | 2 comments This was the first book I read, the one I learnt to read on. It was in the UK, in the mid-80s. I remember there was something about a wizard, and a cat. Possibly climbing a red-brick wall around a garden, with a tree in it? I think it was a whole series, with varying reading levels.

If there were illustrations, can you describe them?

Aspiring Scribbler | 68 comments It sounds like the Puddle Lane series by Sheila K McCullagh.There was also a BBC television series starring Neil Innes as the wizard.

James ~~
You can "bump" your thread every month or so. This pushes your thread back to the top of the folder instead of languishing here on page 35 where fewer eyes will see it.
Good luck!

Wonderful to hear you tracked down the first book you read. Thanks for the update, James.
