Publisher Description
Winner of the Fall 2016 Parents' Choice FunStuff Award!
Magic is real -- and it runs in the family -- in this charming fantasy adventure about a boy who must balance his magical education with the demands of big-brotherhood, perfect for fans of Jenny Nimmo and Angie Sage.
Henry Leach the Eighth doesn't know it yet, but he's descended from a long line of wandmakers. That means he has inherited mysterious powers, a trunk full of strange artifacts... and a whole host of problems.
His biggest problem at the moment, however, is his little sister, Brianna. She's always had a special talent for getting in his way. And she takes troublemaking to new heights when she's caught in the crossfire of Henry's first major spell!
Heartfelt, funny, and imaginative, Wandmaker is sure to leave young readers spellbound.

“Narrator Ramon de Ocampo creates a magical world and voice for young Henry as he goes on an adventure to become a wand master and save the world from an evil wizard. De Ocampo’s steady tone for Henry is juxtaposed with the more emotional voice of Henry’s younger sister, Brianna…A perfect family listen.”

— School Library Journal -
“This fun romp…perfectly captures the everyday drama of Henry and Brianna’s squabbling, while simultaneously cataloguing their fantastic adventures on an out-of-control road trip.”
