She becomes Mr. Maguire's apprentice and learns how to repair cauldrons, break disfiguring hexes, and mend magic hats that won't stop duplicating rabbits. But Maggie is in more trouble than she bargained for when an evil magician, Milo the Magnificent, comes to town with his deadly magic act....<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Amanda Marrone</b> grew up on Long Island where she spent her time reading, drawing, watching insects, and suffering from an overactive imagination.
