Immi, Lulu, and Sir Dook: Spell Oops!
After IMMI learns a spell from big sister, LULU, she decides she doesn't need Lulu to help her with a new spell. She casts a Changing spell against their guardian, SIR DOOK, and Lulu's wishes and accidentally turns Lulu into a frog. If Immi doesn't fix Lulu, the girls will be grounded from using magic for life and Sir Dook will be a cursed rabbit forever. Now Immi must work with Lulu to fix all the spell oops.

My Why:
This book is a celebration of possibilities and sister/friendship relationships. As a teacher of K-5th grade and now middle school to high school, I've noticed that many children find it difficult to think creatively, to play with possibilities, and to sometimes navigate through the quagmire of friendship. So I hope when kids read this book they will have fun but also remember to be open to possibilities.
