Walter Brown and the Magician's Hat (Children's illustrated novel 7-10 yrs)

RED RIBBON WINNER WISHING SHELF BOOK AWARDS 2016 (Judged by school children and teachers in six UK primary schools!)

When Walter Brown is woken on his 10th birthday by his cat Sixpence he has no idea that his life is about to change forever. A large present wrapped in silver paper reveals an old top hat, a tiny pair of white gloves and a magician's wand - together with a mysterious note from his late Great-grandpa Horace.

But Walter gets the biggest surprise when he puts the top hat on and discovers that his cat has special powers and they've been chosen for a secret mission. What better place to start practising magic, they decide, than on Walter's super-cool new neighbours, twins Harry and George Braithwaite? Magical mayhem follows when Walter accidentally sets free monsters from their new video game and finds himself locked in battle with a Fire Fiend that's threatening to burn his house down...

Oct 17 2017 Update: If you have Walter Brown on your reading list: I'm sorry that I've had to remove the later chapters. This is a requirement from Amazon as I'm making the eBook free on Kindle Unlimited. However the good news is that if you're a member there you can get the whole book for free :)
