review 1: Some pretty funny and equally endearing stories about a tough childhood. It bothered me a bit that the book turned into a religious soul-search, but I was able to accept it as part of the author's journey with magic. And, am I the only one who was annoyed that the book is called "Where's My Wand?" but he doesn't actually use a wand in the book, EVER? It should be called "Where's My Chenille Endora Blanket?"
review 2: I definitely enjoyed the humor Mr. Poole used while detailing his humiliating moments of childhood/adolescence. Reading this book had me reflecting on my own funny/embarrassing/poignant moments while growing up (which I always enjoy doing-- "The Wonder Years" was my favorite tv series for many years!) I was a little confused as to what the point... more of the book was, where it was going, and if it was going to all come together. The last chapter finally did it for me. Not only was it my favorite chapter, but it finally laid out the life lesson that was learned. Easy fun enjoyable read. less
