The Magician's Garden, from Canadian author and illustrator Graeme Bennett, tells the story of a bumbling magician and his loyal assistant, who have to find just the right rabbit for a royal performance.
The story begins when a royal courier visits the old magic shop. It seems the king wants to see a magic show on his birthday. The magician decides he needs a rabbit to pull out of his hat. As the amusing story unfolds, the magician sends his faithful apprentice on a hunt for a top hat-sized rabbit in the local pet store. Alas, all the bunnies there are too large or too small. Fortunately, there's a white rabbit living in the garden next to the magic shop, where the magician has been pouring out all his old magic potions. And it's the perfect size!
When there's magic in the air-and the carrots-what can go wrong? With more than 70 colour illustrations by the author.
