By (author): Simon Philip

Illustrated by: Sheena Dempsey

Originally published as Wizard Vs Lizard, get ready for a laugh-out-loud magical adventure from award-winning author Simon Philip and Sheena Dempsey, illustrator of the much-loved Dave Pigeon series!

Fred may look ordinary, but sometimes people who look ordinary turn out to be not very ordinary at all ... because it just so happens that Fred is a Wizard!

Sounds pretty great, right? Except that Fred is absolutely, completely, mind-boggingly TERRIBLE at magic. At school, he''''s stuck in a class of wizards half his age, feeling like a twit among tots. At home, he''''s endlessly teased by his siblings and always a disappointment to his parents. All Fred wants is to become a better wizard....

About Simon Philip

Simon was born in Chichester in 1988 and has lived there ever since although he occasionally leaves to buy milk. After gaining a 1st class degree in History at Exeter University he immediately put his skills to good use working as a barman at a local pub. He soon grew tired of the owner calling him Andy and so naturally decided to become a primary school teacher. Teaching rekindled his love of children''''s literature particularly picture books so much so that he had a go at writing his own. Deciding he was better at writing stories for children than he would ever be at teaching them he made a swift exit from education to live the cliche of the writer who works in a bar. He hopes that one day he''''ll be able to give up writing stories and become a barman full-time.
