The Book of Curses — Conor Kostick

The Book of Curses is full of dark, wicked magic. Open it only if you dare! Alex Zwick never does what he is told. So when he finds a magic book, he just can't stop making wishes: even when they go horribly wrong. Can Alex and his friend Emily outsmart the book? Or will the chillingly evil laughter of the book ring out in triumph yet again? With new illustrations throughout by award-winning artist J O Callaghan.
