Jennifer Murdley's Toad by Bruce Coville
Mr Elives' Magic Shop seems to appear from nowhere - and disappears again just as fast! Never in the same place twice, it sells only the most exclusive wares...A talking toad, anyone? A dragon's egg? There's plenty to choose from...Jennifer was only looking for an unusual pet. She certainly didn't expect to get a toad that talked. But the strange Mr Elives told her the toad held a lot of secrets - and he wasn't wrong! She didn't find out about the toad's birth...or the treasure hidden in his forehead...or the witch who was out to get him...until she and her friends were in more trouble than they ever dreamed of!
Bruce Coville was born in Syracuse in 1950. He first became interested in writing when he was in the sixth grade, and started writing seriously at the age of 17. He married in 1969, aged 19, and started collaborating on books with his wife, Katherine Dietz, an artist. They have three children. He had many other jobs along the way, including toy maker, gravedigger, cookware salesman and assembly line worker, finally sticking with teaching until his first book was published in 1977. Bruce has published over sixty books since then and now has more than 12 million copies in print.
