Swan Eaters by Georgia Dunn for August 12, 2019

And yes, in case you were wondering, Ivan is kinda clueless. I wonder if he even knows how to read?

He’ll never be ready for the Necronomicon.

If books could teach you stuff, we’d be calling them “stuff teach-ers” or something dumb like that.

Olwen is onto something. Salem is gonna have to take care of that boy.

Careful Ivan, the next book on Salem’s reading list will Curses and Hexes.

Aw, she’s finding a friend for Winnie & Wigglesworth. Hope it’s hungry.

Maybe she’ll summon Ivan a brain.

Are the inside of the wagons like the TARDIS?

Ivan could start by losing that sailor’s middy blouse.

I LOOOOOVE Salem’s bed!

Actually, one thought keeps coming to mind. “If books could kill…”

Let’s see, who knows more about magic. Iven or Salem? As I recall, Salem summoned Mr. Wigglesworth. And Grandma already admitted by the time she was ready to start teaching Salem, Salem already knew so much that she didn’t need her to teach her. Didn’t she also tell Clover to go talk to Salem whenever she needed help and she wasn’t around? Now, what magic has Ivan demonstrated in comparison?

Sorry, I think it’s better to listen to Salem in this case.

Now if she just had a volume on Advanced Sending Away.

Ivan’s setting himself up to be taken by the first demon who offers him an easy path to mastering magic….

Cozy caravan.
