Marty Pants is convinced that Simon Cardigan is a wizard, and using his magical charming spell to take over the world. It's up to Marty to stop this evil plan at all costs. This laugh out loud humorous gag filled tale is sure to keep the reader in giggles from the first to the last page.

Mark Parisi, author of the Marty Pants series, is at it again. Book three, "How to Defeat a Wizard," is a hilarious follow up to "Do Not Open" and "Keep Your Paws Off." This time, Marty thinks that Simon (his nemesis in school) might be using magical powers to maintain his popularity. Marty must use his investigative skills to crack the case, and expose Simon for the phony he thinks that he really is. Is he on the right track? Pick up a copy of Marty Pants 3: How to Defeat a Wizard and find out!

Miss Lori read this very silly book in about 40 mins and smiled the whole time! Marty is an interesting, goofy young man whose thoughts and crazy ideas come from nowhere! Middle Grade kids should love this character and the silly illustrations that are a part of the book.

Another delightful Marty Pants outing. I’m a bit sad to see that this is the last one. My kids take great delight in Marty’s misinterpretations of reality and I enjoy the puns and wondering how Parisi is going to get his hero out of the ever deeper holes he digs himself into.
