A little preview

In a crooked tower with windows like teacups, Alex visited Master Brindle, a kindly wizard with a laugh like a rattle. Today the wizard worried: his wand had begun to wobble whenever he tried to stir a pot or knot a ribbon. The wand’s tip made ribbons into rabbits and stirred soup into tiny storms. The bakery next door had been flooded with flying croutons! Master Brindle worried his wobble would spoil the village fair. Alex offered to inspect the wand and help find its hiccup.
