Having a reluctant reader in the house has been even more challenging over the last four months with school being closed. But I won’t give up the quest of showing him that reading can be fun. We were recently sent the newly released Mug the Wumph the Dancing Wizard by Nicola J Rowley which is aimed at children aged 7-12 years.
Mug the Wumph the Dancing Wizard is told through the eyes of 12-year-old Minty Taylor and shows readers how important it is to communicate effectively and to respond to situations they find themselves in. Seems rather apt in the current climate.
Imagine the adventures you would have, if, like Minty, you discovered a magic ten-sided copper coin that could conjure up a wizard and his cat! That’s exactly what happened to Minty when she unwittingly found the Bonheur, when she found and treasured this little piece of treasure, which brought Mug the Wumph the Dancing Wizard and Cupro Blue the cat, to her side.
When the wizard starts to dance amazing things happen and Minty soon learns that she must help him on his mission to thwart the evil wizard Grimacant when children from her school start to go missing.
The story builds and the characters are colourful which helps to bring the story to life and took us on a magical journey as we read Mug the Wumph the Dancing Wizard together. It’s beautifully written and the themes of bravery, courage and leadership are weaved throughout the pages. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading this book together and I’ve included my Amazon Affiliate link below (I do earn from qualifying purchases) in case you’d like to take your children on a magical journey too.
