  To Alex’s dismay, Steve has been off in the dessert again, scoping out the old temple. He sees a *mysterious stranger* in a robe leave the temple, making sure that nobody could see him in his travels. Well Steve saw him, and has a bone to pick with him if he were the one who set the trap. 
  The only problem is, Steve found potion bottles in the temple after the stranger left, confirming he is a wizard. And wizards can be dangerous. Will Steve convince Alex to take one last trip to the dessert to confront this Wizard? Will they stay safe? Time will tell when you read “Wacky Wizard” 
  A tale with too many twists and turns to count, “Wacky Wizard” will have any young reader captivated – even the ones that don’t like to read.
