WISHA WOZZARITER

Payal Kapadia

2013 Crossword Book Award for Best Children's Writing in India.

Wisha Wozzariter is a ten-year-old girl who wishes, more than anything else in the world, that she were a writer. When she meets a Bookworm, she takes many a wild ride on the Thought Express. She scours the Marketplace of Ideas for a winning idea for her book; she scouts the Superhero Salon and the Bargain Bazaar for a hero; and she visits the Circus of Bad Form to understand why Structure is so important to Story. She encounters a motley crew of characters, including a purple mouse who is scared of her own shadow. And a stout and shifty villain who Wisha must fight with her pen. After all, the pen is mightier than the sword, isn't it?

With the Bookworm's help, Wisha slowly but surely cobbles together an Idea, a Hero, and a Style that is all her own. Now Wisha has almost everything that she needs to write her own book. Well, almost everything. Join Wisha on this rollicking writer's adventure, brought to vivid life by Roger Dahl's zany illustrations.
