Description - Tale of a Tail by Margaret Mahy

Strange and exciting things are in store when Tom and his mum move to Prodigy Street one ordinary Thursday. There's a man with a magical name, a friendly dog with a powerful, waggy tail, and some remarkable surprises when anyone makes a wish.

Includes more than 50 hilarious black and white illustrations by Tony Ross, who also illustrates for David Walliams and Roald Dahl, as well as his own picture books.

'A prime example of late writing legend Margaret Mahy's best work; clever, quirky and laced with magic of the most unusual kind.' - The Reader, Booksellers New Zealand Blog

'Tale of a Tail has a quirky feel and never once looses its charm. Children ages 5-9 will enjoy this marvellous tale of magic, childhood, and owning a pet.' - NZ Booklovers
