I really am quite useless as a wizard. But Class Three thinks Mr Majeika is
an excellent wizard, particularly when his spells go wrong! First Hamish
Bigmore ends up on TV, then a real giant appears in the school play. And
finally Mr Majeika gets the whole class lost on a magic carpet! Theres always
an adventure with Mr Majeika around
