Salem Hyde is a little witch who learns to conjure while planning to run for a spelling contest at school. He is also a collector of unicorns, and has a tendency to get into trouble.
Perhaps that is why (and the intervention of Aunt Martha), that the cat Whammy arrives at his house; and being a witch is not only having powers, it is also necessary a little self-control (among other qualities).
"A mess of spells" is the first book in the series, its author is Frank Cammuso - who claims to have written and drawn the book in pajamas -; It has been edited by Edebé, and translated by Raquel Solà
Is a children's book in comic format, and suitable for children over eight. Its reading is entertaining, fun and tender, because it shows a disadvantaged Salem spelling about Shelly, but much more awake (although it is often confusing to conjugate with "conjugate"). The fact that his parents have warned him that "no magic at school" is not an obstacle for a good day to appear a whale in the gym ... well, that and other things happen.
The point is that you will enjoy, and if you have not brought the comic to children, now is the time. "Salem Hyde" is already the protagonist of three books, in which he will continue to cast spells, and being a bit irritating; Regarding the latter, Frank says that it is typical of children, and I, without taking his reason, affirm that we are much older. You can order it in your usual bookstore for 7.95 euros.
We thank Edebé have made possible the Spanish edition, although on the author's page there are all his books in original version, and you can buy them because he has a store - they are also sold on Amazon -.
And if I have convinced you, it only remains to buy it, give it away, and enjoy, or enjoy the children.
