Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive.

Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Ever since Ms. Murphy told us about the witch trials that happened centuries ago right here in Juniper, I can’t stop thinking about them. Those people weren’t magic. They were like me. Different like me. I’m autistic. I see things that others do not. I hear sounds that they can ignore. And sometimes I feel things all at once. I think about the witches, with no one to speak for them. Not everyone in our small town understands. But if I keep trying, maybe someone will. I won’t let the witches be forgotten. Because there is more to their story. Just like there is more to mine.

Publisher's summary
Poor Simon is always in trouble. If only he could be less clumsy, or more popular, his life would be perfect! But how is a woodworking project going to help him achieve this seemingly impossible goal?
It was never even meant to be a box. It was supposed to be a kitchen roll holder. But when Simon Cup goes to the last woodwork lesson of the term, what he makes amazes not only the woodwork teacher, but the whole school.
Middle Grade fantasy for all children aged 7+
Highly recommended listening for lovers of woodwork, fantasy, and silliness.
