Eddy Stone and the Mean Genie's Curse

LoveReading4Kids Says

Fast-paced and very funny, Eddy Stone’s new adventure involves wizards, emperors, talking (dancing) camels and lots more that is very silly indeed.  It all begins when Eddy buys a parcel of stuff in the house clearance at the town’s old manor.  It turns out to contain a wizard with no body and a curse.  He has to give everyone a wish, but they never work out as the wisher wanted.  For example, when Eddy’s dad wishes he could sit around in front of the TV all day, he turns into a sofa. The only way Eddy can put things right is by heading to the wizard’s home in another magical land.  The adventure that follows is consistently inventive, packed with cracking one-liners and lots of very funny set ups.  There are two other Eddy Stone adventures, and I’d recommend you buy the lot.
