Kwame's Magic Quest #1: Rise of the Green Flame

Ages 6–8

Endlich ist der Tag gekommen, an dem der achtjährige Kwame die Nkonyaa-Schule beginnt und Magie lernt! Jedes Kind erhält eine magische Kalebasse vom Nkonyaa-Baum, die es für Zaubersprüche benutzt. Kwame freut sich auf das magische Training mit seinen neuen Freunden, aber er kann nicht auf seine Zauberkräfte zugreifen. Er beginnt sich Sorgen zu machen — was, wenn er gar keine Magie hat? Dann benimmt sich sein Freund Fifi seltsam, und Kwame entdeckt, dass seine Kräfte vielleicht ungewöhnlicher sind, als irgendjemand erwartet hätte.
