Description
Summary:Kit Spencer may be the youngest wizard ever, but she sure doesn't feel like the best wizard. Her magic keeps going wrong, and other weird stuff is happening: talking animals, exploding fireballs, and a very strange new arrival in the local park. Kit and her two best friends, Alita and Josh, set off with Faith the librarian to investigate the wild magic that's causing so much commotion. Their journey takes them to Scotland, where they meet a loch-full of cranky mermaids, but the danger is greater than they imagined. Will they be able to set things right before the wild magic spreads further?

Author Notes:Louie Stowell started her career writing carefully researched books about space, ancient Egypt, politics, and science, but she eventually lapsed into just making stuff up. She likes writing about dragons, wizards, vampires, fairies, monsters, and parallel worlds. Louie Stowell, a longtime publishing professional, lives in London with her wife, Karen; her dog, Buffy; and a creepy puppet that is probably cursed.

Davide Ortu is an Italian artist who began his career in graphic design before discovering children's book illustration. He is on a quest to conjure colorful and fantastic places where time stops to offer the biggest emotions to the smallest people. Davide Ortu lives in Spain.
