"Brush your worries away and draw a line in worries lingering in your heart!”
The second adventure of the Skinny Wizard, a book with only one piece of paper, and lovely dust bunnies
Thin as a hair, as thin as a sheet of paper, but enough magic to move the tiniest stroke of a letter to create new words, hear the voices of dust bunnies, and melt frost! The Skinny Wizard is back for a second adventure that introduces young readers to the "small but not weak" beings that populate our world.
The Skinny Wizard has a lot on his plate these days. There are so many things that need his skinny magic, from settling an egret and a terrapin’s quarrel by tying reeds together to mending a broken necklace.
One day, strange things happen in the neighborhood. A giant, twisty ball of fur is blocking people and something with a sharp piece of horsehair is out to get the children. Who is that, by the way? Can the Skinny Wizard, a paper-and-book Tapaha, and a dust bunny ‘use’ save the neighborhood?

Whereas the previous version of ‘The Skinny Wizard and the Very Good Tapaha’ was an introduction to the Skinny Wizard, ‘The Skinny Wizard and the dog who really cannot do’, is an adventure in which the Skinny Wizard and his friends demonstrate the full power of skinny magic. From the curiously named "dog," to the mysterious "Paper Face," to the man-catching "No-Way," let’s follow the author's imaginative new characters and the nonstop events that unfold. What mysterious world awaits at the end of this intriguing thread of words and pictures?
