Otis Ottley and the School in the Sky

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Otis Ottley lives in the shadow of the Manor School for Magic. Literally. It's an island hovering over his town, and he's determined to reach it.

While many kids dream of roaming the prestigious institution's halls, casting spells and conjuring spectacles, Otis has a specific mission: to seek magical help remembering something extremely important.

The odds are stacked against him, but Otis will break into magic school. Or at the very least, he will break a few rules trying.

A wonderful middle-grade novel, brimming with magic, from a much-loved Prime Minister's Literary Award-winning author.
