The Wizard Without a Wand
|
In Book 2 of The Wizard Without a Wand, Jenie Maloy tells us her version of what happened during her first year at Wizard School. While it's the same story as Shmedley Thrumbledack's story in Book 1 of this series, we learn different things. For one thing, it's told from a different person's perspective. For another, Jenie remembers more things than Schmedley.Jenie Maloy is one of the Tensome – a group of ten kind students who somehow end up together in their dorm – Hotel Westly. Jenie doesn't want her parent to find about her friends, because every time they do, she quickly loses those friends. Jenie thinks she wants to hang with the super-rich kids. She also wants to hang out with boys, several boys, enough boys to drive her parents nuts. But she finds that hanging with the Tensome is what she really wants to do. And she learns that she has a gift she has always wanted, but which she always thought she never had. In this book, we are introduced to the rest of the Tensome and to the rest of the Teachers. Rating G; Reading Level Easy 5th Grade; Longest Word: Incomprehensibly. Jennie Malloy is a young teenage girl. The day before she heads to Wizard School, she changes her name to Jenie Maloy. She hopes people will mistake her name for Genie. Her parents give her a magic diary. She can write whatever she wants to in the diary and then look it up remotely, later when she needs to know it. Her magic diary won't let her cheat on schoolwork. But it does help her remember things, especially the names of all those boys.Jenie's parents give her the choice of riding the Train to Wizard School or riding the Bus. Even though Jenie knows that she'll totally loathe riding on the Bus, she agrees to do so. Jenie figures that riding the Bus to Wizard School is the right thing to do. And doing the right thing will get her into Hotel UpAbove where all the super-rich kids stayed. Well, maybe she'd only end up in Hotel Northby where the rich, but not super-rich, kids stayed. However, something went terribly wrong. For Jenie Maloy ended up in Hotel Westly. Yet, as soon as she met the hotel clerk Pinkshny Shmerimidan, she knew that they would be best friends, even though Pinkshny was several years older.Some stories about Wizard Schools are rather dark. This one is mysterious, yet light. And there's lots of humor. There will be surprises. And you'll like the ending. Wizard Schools seem to have certain things in common. Dragons for instance. But Dinosaurs? Yep, this Wizard school also has those. They also have bullies as do other Wizard Schools. How will Schmedley be able to defend himself from them without his wand? Giants, perhaps. One of the students is very tall and very muscular. Most Wizard Schools have Dormitories. Sometimes they're called houses. This Wizard School calls them hotels. The students at all Wizard Schools cast spells. In this one, they all have other special, magical abilities. If this were a book about superheros, those talents might be called superpowers. They all have teachers or professors, and principals or headmasters or headmistresses. And there are always tests, both the formal and informal kind.
