Great

When Liza, Howie, Melody and Eddie meet their librarian, Mr. Merle, Howie, Liza and Melody think that their librarian is a wizard. But Eddie did not believe them because wizards lived in a long time ago. He also said that they do not need computers. One thing Howie is for sure that Merle is a wizard because his fish's name is Arthur like King Arthur. Is Mr. Merle a wizard?. FIND OUT

This is an exciting book!

This is a good book and it helps you read better because the words start out easy and then they get a little bit harder.

Wizards Don't Need Computers is great!

Wizards Don't Need Computers is about four kids,who go to the Baily City library. They find a new librarian. The four kids think he is a wizard from the middle ages. So they sneak into his desk and find a wand. One of the kids waves the wand in front of the wizard. Read the book to find out what happens.

Is the mystical librarian a wizard? The kids think so.

The book Wizards Don't Need Computers is wonderful!! I would reccomend to any age reader. It's about four kids set out to do a report on Eingland. They go to the library and ask a strange old man that worked there, where they could find it. He finds it for them. A few days later they come back and find a crystel ball in a his drower. Who knows if the four kids will make it out alive our if they will ever find out if the strange man is realy a wizard
