The story of the boy wizard who works to destroy evil grows more sophisticated as he goes through Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. Harry’s adventures begin with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone . Fantastic creatures can also be met in books more appealing to younger readers, many steeped in tradition.

The Little Green Witch
by Barbara McGrath, illustrated by Martha Alexander
The little green witch gets no help from her companions (a ghost, bat, and gremlin); that is until she brings a tasty pumpkin pie out of the oven! The small witch comes up with a satisfying and funny comeuppance for her uncooperative chums!

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz:
A Commemorative Pop-Up
based on the novel by Frank Baum
Meet a very special wizard and other magical creatures on a journey to the Land of Oz with Dorothy and her companions. Their adventures literally come off the pages in this entirely fresh and refreshing version of Baum’s classic novel (also made into a now-classic film).
