Cute and Fun
This is a clever book with great wordplay, silly jokes, and a very subtle message about not worrying. Wizard (a wizard) and Wart a dog) are concerned when Zounds (a vulture) announces that "Trouble" is coming.

Will not read this book to my child a second time
I was surprised, and then angry, when I read this book to my child. Ants who come to burn your house down are troublesome and floods are trouble, but the worst trouble is a woman. The world does not need a book to help perpetuate demeaning female stereotypes. We will NOT be purchasing any more of these books.

Cute and Fun,
This review is from: Wizard and Wart in Trouble (I Can Read Book 2) (Paperback)
This is a clever book with great wordplay, silly jokes, and a very subtle message about not worrying. Wizard (a wizard) and Wart a dog) are concerned when Zounds (a vulture) announces that "Trouble" is coming. Some minor trouble does come, in a way, but the wizard eventually get things straightened out. And (Don't Look Cause This Will Give Away The Story) the "Trouble" that Zounds was talking about turns out to be just the name of another vulture! The pictures are very colorful yet simply done. A great book for beginning readers or for adults to read to kids. The book has 48 pages divided into 5 short chapters...lots of illustrations and only one to five (or so) sentences per page.
