The Amazing Fartzini

Eleven-year-old Eric Fartz and his mum, Ingrid, fled their hometown of Sheffield to start a new life in Ramsgate, Kent, to escape his father. Eric was a shy boy who lacked confidence; he had no friends and was bullied by two horrible boys at his new school. Then, one day, a chance meeting with a wise old magician at the local Christmas Fair convinced him to take up magic, which changed his life!

Throughout the story, Eric performs amazing magic tricks, which help him become more popular and make friends. The story culminates in Eric entering ‘St. Bartholomew’s Got Talent’, but will he get the chance to take part?

The cool, jaw-dropping magic tricks Eric performs are taught at the back of the book so readers can create wonderment, too!

Disappear into this thrilling, funny, and thought-provoking story about Eric’s struggle to "fit in" at big school. It's filled with inspiration and advice, not only on performing magic but also on becoming more self-confident!

A modern-day fairy tale about triumph over adversity, conjured up inside the mind of a professional magician for younger readers!
