My Magical Life

Summary

Selected as a title in Tom Fletcher's Book Club 2018!

-------------

A debut series from the mega-talented Zach King, full of laughs, zany action and more than a hint of magic.

Eleven-year-old Zach has magical powers, just like everyone in his family, but he's having trouble harnessing his abilities...


Obviously being magical, but not being able to use his abilities isn't exactly great for Zach
So, his parents decide he needs to be around real people.

No more home schooling- it's time to go to the scary world of secondary school!

But Zach can't resist a bit of magic... A simple spell ends with him and his best friend stuck in a vending machine.

Someone filmed it and by the next day he's gone viral on YouTube, getting the attention of Rachel, the prettiest girl at school.

With everyone wondering how Zach does his tricks, and with head mean girl Trisha plotting to bring him down, Zach's got his work cut out if he's going to survive year 7 and keep his dreams of becoming a master magician intact.
