OK so clearly im not the target audience for this book as i am an adult, but i actually really enjoyed it, and got caught up in the story, the book tells the story of max the wannabe magician who practice hard at his magic but still have a way to go until one day his life chances forever, the book also covers morals you would expect in a kids book like standing up to bullies without becoming one, in many ways its the kind of book you would expect from Stephen Mulhern its full magic and cheesy jokes, i actually would be happy to read future books, im excited to see what he does with his magic, i love the random use of cockney rhyming slang, max's gran uses. while the book on the surface is about a boy learning magic, on a deeper level its about family and friends, solving problems together, trying to make the world a slightly better place and standing up for what's right,
