Gr 5-8-A wizard shares 600 years worth of ideas for staging a party, along with an appropriate story to tell guests for each occasion. Themes include spring, winter, Chinese New Year, Halloween, and summer solstice, as well as generic parties for "alchemists," and Merlin and Aladdin fanciers. Many of the festivities require involved and not inexpensive materials. Craft and food ideas usually have some magical (usually chemical reactive) twist. The decorations, games, food, songs, and stories are described in great detail, and readers are advised when to seek help from an adult. The text is superimposed on splashes and swirls of color, and the illustrations are decorative as well as instructional. This is the ultimate, over-the-top, party idea book for well-off, bored middle schoolers who may be lured by the Harry Potteresque motifs.-Cathie Reed, The Montessori School, Lutherville, MD (c) Copyright 2010.

《儿童读物杂志》(Horn Book)书评
This book offers nine different magic-oriented ideas for fantastic parties: an AlchemistsÆ Gathering, a Fairy Frolic, a Druid Halloween party, and more. For each party, the text suggests costumes, crafts, decorations, food, and games. Much care has gone into the look of the book (purportedly written by a 600-year-old wizard): thick, padded covers; a purple ribbon; pastel-colored pages; and fanciful illustrations. Ind.

《书目》(Booklist)书评
Gr. 4^-6. Expertly riding the Harry Potter tsunami, the authors expand on the potions and projects of The Book of Wizard Craft (2001) with this collection of ideas for eight theme and seasonal fetes--from "Wizards' Winter Revels" to an "Egyptian Summer Solstice Party." Assuring children that, "we wizards never say no to having a good time," the jolly, 600-year-old narrator suggests games, crafts, costumes, snacks, and such crowd-pleasing concoctions as "Dragon's Blood Potion," which changes color when poured into prepared glasses (the first ingredient listed is "an adult wizard"). The book even includes a few a sketchy folktales. Patterns and diagrams appear when needed, and Baggetta's painted party scenes add festive, atmospheric notes. Though the volume is overdesigned, with padded covers and small type printed over textured backgrounds, the contents are both inventive and practical enough to keep young alchemists and faerie folk spellbound without causing adult wizards to lose either their sanity or their life savings. --John Peters
