At times I had to quickly edit out sexist language, but generally it is a good read-aloud for 7 and 8 year olds.

Mr Majeika is about a wizard who applied to be a teacher, he flew into the classroom on a magic carpet. It's short but with lots of chapters, it takes the reader through several incidents in a school year. This is particularly because of its ‘superhero’ feel like nature and magical element that children feel that they can relate to and would definitely recommend it. Unfortunately there's only one applicant - Hamish Bigmore's Uncle Wilf who is just as rude and bad-tempered as Hamish. I rather enjoyed how the magician would lose his temper with poor behaviour (Hamish Bigmore often falls victim) and cast various spells on pupils then apologise profusely but never know how to reverse the damage.I thought this was a brilliant, funny and amusing book because the characters are interesting like Melanie who cries a lot and Hamish who is naughty. These are lovely classic, harmless stories that are playful and fun for kids to read and don't use complex language, so they're very easy reads. With Mr Majeika in charge, suddenly life at school become much more exciting" there's even a magic-carpet ride to Buckingham Palace!

The focus on this particular story centres on the main character of Mr Majeika, a teacher at St Barty's Primary School.Both of these characters are also in the books, but Melanie is a much less important and very different type of character in the books, and is replaced by another character as female lead, Jody. Majeika is an irrepressible wizard sent to "Britland" from the planet Walpurgis because he failed his O-level sorcery exam for the seventeenth time. I recommend Mr Majeika to parents or guardians seeking a light-hearted book about bumbling sorcerers in staid school environments. As well as the Mr Majeika titles, his children's books also included Shakespeare Without the Boring Bits and More Shakespeare Without the Boring Bits.

As a rule, magic carpets don't turn up in schools, but this is exactly what happens when Class Three's new teacher flies in through the classroom window and lands on the floor with a bump.His parents are away an awful lot which goes some way to explaining his acting out in the classroom and general disregard for authority.
