Suzy Magician

Alexander McCall Smith
(Young Corgi)
978-0552526067, RRP £2.50, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Suzy Magician (Young Corgi)" on Amazon

Young Suzy desperately wants to be a magician - the very best in the world. So she enters a competition for a place at Professor Cadabra's school. However, things work against her and just when she's convinced she'll end up working in her parents' hotel, she gets a chance to prove herself and finally becomes not only star pupil at the school, but saviour of her parents' business too.

A rather slight tale which, despite its subject matter, seemed to lack any real spark of magic.
