An early precursor to the Harry Potter phenomenon. I must say, at first I wasn’t sure I liked this book because it got into lots of equations/spells/etc. But, I ended up finding it very uplifting. While I see they toss this around as similar to Harry Potter, it’s quite different as Nita and Kit (our main characters) don’t go off to wizards schoo, they learn wizardry from a book. Recommended highly.
