When Barbara and Rick Benton find a wizard named Harrison Peabody in an old bottle, they quickly discover that magic isn't as simple as it looks. But even tricky magic is better than no magic, and soon the Bentons are flying around Prospect Park with a large black umbrella and befriending a sea serpent in the lake. How can they keep Harrison a secret, though, when he's living in their attic?
Delightful stories that deal with matter-of-fact magic, Ruth Chew's books have been engaging young readers for over 40 years. Now a new generation can discover the timelessness of these marvelous tales.
Customer Reviews
An unknown treasure!
I read this book to my now adult children and have the pleasure of now sharing it with my grandchildren! I'm currently reading it to a 3 & 6 year old. They stay transfixed in their seats, waiting for the next page. There are few pictures, so the ones they see are in their imaginations! They love the story and beg me to read "one more chapter" each time we sit down! It's one of those lesser known books that is a treasure.
