What lurks in your closet?
POTTERWOOKIE: THE CREATURE FROM MY CLOSET by Obert Skye. Henry Holt, September 2012.
In the first book in this new series, the creature that emerged from Robert's closet was part Willy Wonka and part Frankenstein (Wonkenstein). Now Harry Potter meets Star Wars to produce Potterwookie, a furry little thing with a magic wand. of course, there will be some complications with his family and friends. Spells will be cast, bullies might just be defeated, and there may even be some new adventures. Kids who love DIARY OF A WIMPY KID will gravitate toward Robert and his incredible closet creations. <453>
