Hank’s sister Emily wants Ralph’s Reptile Show to perform at her birthday party more than anything, but Ralph is booked solid. So Hank comes up with a plan: he’ll disguise himself as a magician called The Westside Wizard and pull a snake from thin air! But when Hank’s true identity is revealed during his performance, his good deed might just turn into a huge disaster.

Here’s Hank, the New York Times bestselling series written by Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver, is the perfect series for the transitional reader. It features easy-to-read font, simple funny stories, and characters like Hank Zipzer. Hank may not be the best at spelling (or math, or reading) but he always tries his hardest, whether he’s helping out his younger sister, standing up to the class bully, or getting into—and out of!—trouble with his two best friends.
