About
The wicked-ly good New York Times bestselling series continues with some new perils in Oz.
Ava is getting a little tired of told when to use her magic... and when to leave it to the adults. Case in point: When a helpful curse is broken, her friend Henry goes physically from being a small boy to being a big giant. And, even worse, he's in the cafeteria at the time, and he's now stuck inside, too big for any of the doors. Ava wants to help -- but the head of the School for Wicked Witches tells her and her friends to let the teachers figure it out.
This isn't good enough for Ava. She, Crow, and Tinabella are going to do whatever they can to help Henry. They've even found an ally in an older girl named Angelica, who Ava thinks is really cool... and who Tinabella doesn't trust. When Ava's magic wobbles at the exact wrong time, she and her friends are suddenly in more trouble than ever. But will the way out be a good one... or will it lead to something wicked?
Praise for The Language of Seabirds:
* "Jeremy's entry into adolescence is warm and triumphant without offering pat solutions or platitudes. A wonderful, tender story about changing relationships." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review
* "Via a leisurely third-person narration that effectively conjures the agony of first texts and the emotional awkwardness of adolescence, Taylor (Maggie & Abby's Neverending Pillow Fort) writes with vulnerability the conflict of being in-between." --Publishers Weekly, starred review
"An atmospheric LGBTQIA+ romance perfect for all middle grade and young adult collections." --School Library Journal
"A warm-hearted story that affirms and celebrates a tender relationship between two boys." --The Horn Book
Will Taylor cast his third spell when he was seven and still works for a chocolate company, so that one seems to have worked, too. He is a marketing writer, avid reader, and award-winning children's author, and lives in Seattle surrounded by all the seagulls and not quite too many cozy sweaters. When not writing, Will can be found searching for the perfect bakery and completely losing his cool when he meets longhaired dachshunds.
His books include the School for Wicked Witches series, The Language of Seabirds, Catch That Dog!, Slimed (writing as Liam Gray), Maggie & Abby's Neverending Pillow Fort, and Maggie and Abby and the Shipwreck Treehouse.
