Welcome to the Wednesday’s Favorites post. In the Wednesday’s
Favorites post I will talk about a book I loved and that I think deserves a
little more attention. I read popular books, but also many books that aren’t so
popular (yet). In this post all sorts of books from all sorts of genre’s will have
a chance to shine. Today’s Wednesday’s Favorites is ‘Billy Bobble Makes a Magic Wand’ by R.S. Mellette, a book I read in January.
The Book:
universe. Your wand is.”
Quinofski didn’t mean to change the universe. Billy, a quantum physics prodigy,
just wanted to find a way to help his hoarding, schizophrenic mother – and
maybe impress a coven of older girls in high school. Suzy, his intellectual
equal, wanted to help her friend and cling to her last remnant of childhood, a
belief in magic.
Together they made Billy a real, working, magic wand, and opened a door to the
Quantum World where thoughts create reality, and all things – good and bad –
are possible.
The Facts:
Average Amazon Rating: 4.3

Bobble Makes a Magic Wand is a perfect coming of age book for late tweens and
