Marvin and the Book of Magic by Jenny Pearson
Marvellous Marvin braves the stage to showcase the magic that can be found in true friendship in this hilarious and heartfelt tale from bestselling author Jenny Pearson. After being humiliated by a badly behaved squirrel on national television, Marvin has vowed NEVER to perform magic in public again. But when he acquires a mysterious book that promises to show those with the gift of magic how to use it properly, his best friend Asha persuades him to make a comeback in the school talent show. Watch Marvellous Marvin take to the stage to demonstrate the magic that can be found in true friendship!"Funny dialogue, lively characters well-paced jokes and some slapstick … demonstrates the importance of persisting with your talents in the face of failure and of helping a friend, with bitesize chapters to squeeze into bedtime or classroom reading" – The Sunday Times

"Using her own special brand of magic, and more than a little sleight of hand, Pearson’s imaginative and entertaining story … brought to life by Aleksei Bitskoff’s richly detailed and comical illustrations – will delight audiences of every age. A wise, witty and wonderful adventure!" – Lancashire Evening Post
"Humorous from beginning to end … perfectly interspersed with lively illustrations … Themes of encouragement, family and friendship are the heart of this story." – INIS Magazine
