• Description: The Wizard In My Shed: The Misadventures of Merdyn the Wild - by Simon Farnaby. Merdyn the Wild is from the Dark Ages. He's the world's greatest Warlock (don't call him a wizard), banished to the 21st century for bad behaviour, and he's about to create a whole load of trouble for Rose, aged 12. Rose is a totally ordinary girl, on a mission to mend her broken family. Bubbles is Rose's guinea pig. He just poos a lot. When Rose bumps into Merdyn and discovers what he is, she quickly realises that he could be just what she needs. Rose agrees to help Merdyn navigate the confusing ways of the modern world (things like: the lidded bowl in the bathroom is NOT a sink, it's a TOILET, so definitely DON'T wash your face in it) if Merdyn gives her a spell to fix her family in return. Now they just need to hide him in the shed without Rose's mum noticing, track down Merdyn's magic staff and find a way to send Merdyn back through time to the Dark Ages. What could possibly go wrong...? L/O: This is a relaxed class aimed at developing a love of reading. Children will have the opportunity to gain confidence reading aloud to the group should they wish, or can read along at home if they prefer. We will explore the plots and characters as we go along, and there will be optional extra activities to complete after the classes each week as well. Children will need their own copy of the text.
