Little do the dog owners of Barker Street know that when night falls, their beloved pets are learning some entirely new types of tricks... or SPELLS to be exact!

Sneaking away to magic school, kind and thoughtful cocker spaniel Chip hopes to keep up with his lessons while avoiding the tricksy spells of the local cats. But the harder he tries, the more things don't seem to go to plan! Luckily, his friends and teachers are there to help!

With illustrations on every page, Magic School for Dogs is filled with adorable doggy characters, fun magic lessons, friendship, and heartfelt messages about doing your best—and, most of all, having fun along the way!

Pippa Curnick is the winner of the Alligator's Mouth Award!
