You'll love The Amazing Brodie The sepia toned pictures are fantastic and add an element of whimsy to this delightful story about a young boy's faith in childhood. Brodie is a farm boy with responsibilities. He just spent the first night in his own room. His dad expects him to grow-up and put all the silliness of magic behind him, and he might have if he didn't find his great great grandfather's magic potions book. He just has to try some of the recipes, but when the family dog Stan disappears, all thoughts of potions and magic are put aside. Finding Stan is on everyone's mind.
