Bizard the Bear Wizard is back with another silly, suspenseful adventure!In the first book in this graphic-novel series, Bizard got a wand stuck in his head and gained the ability to grant wishes. In this latest entry, his wish-granting business is still going strong. Everyone in the forest is getting what they want-electric drum sets (with headphones), a ninja outfit, and pink fluffy slippers. But what will happen when Bizard goes into hibernation? Who will grant the wishes then? Squirrel comes up with a plan: He'll grant the wishes in Bizard's absence. In agreement, Bear gives Squirrel his very own magic wand. Squirrel gets a little too excited about his newfound powers, however, giving Mouse a too-big TV (before eventually making it a mouse-size one) and Deer a hat that won't come off. Worst of all, he accidentally jumbo-sizes the baby bunny, Fluffy Wuffy! Now it's up to Bear, Squirrel, Fox, and Owl to save the day. With a giant carrot and jet pack, will they be able to right the massive mistake? As the characters fix Squirrel's mess, he comes to realize the importance of teamwork and personal responsibility. The cartoon illustrations are bright and quirky, aligning with the kid-friendly humor of the story. Light on text, this one will readily appeal to emerging comics readers.A wacky tale with admirable lessons to be learned. (Graphic fiction. 7-10)

When Bizard the Bear Wizard’s friends decide to try to help him grant wishes, it turns out that two magic wands are so much worse than one.

Ever since a tornado planted a wizard’s wand in his forehead, Bear has been more than just a bear; he’s Bizard, the Bear Wizard. Since we last saw him, Bizard has come around to accepting his new job granting wishes for everyone in the forest. With Squirrel, Fox, and Owl’s help, the business is running like clockwork. There’s only one problem: winter is on the way, and urgent wishes will go ungranted while Bizard hibernates.

That’s when Squirrel gets the bright idea that he should have a magic wand, too.

In the power trip that follows, Squirrel burdens tiny Mouse with a massive TV, Deer gets stuck with a hat he can’t take off, and worst of all, a baby bunny grows as big as a tree—with the only wand that can save him wedged in his diaper. Can a jetpack, a giant carrot, and the whole crew’s quick thinking untangle this disaster and get Fluffy Wuffy back to his proper size? 

Author-illustrator Chrissie Krebs brings even higher stakes and bigger laughs in Bizard’s second book, a surefire hit with young readers looking for their next favorite graphic novel series.
