The Evil Wizard Smallbone (2016)
“When his cousin ran away in December, Jerry thought he was rid of the little pest for good. Never in a million years had he thought that Nick would turn up again, much less in Smallbone Cove.
The shock lasted only for a moment before it turned into pure hatred.
Jerry pretty much hated everybody in the world, but Nick was special. Ever since he and Aunt Brigitte had come to live with his dad when Jerry was ten, Jerry had resented him. Jerry had wanted Aunt Brigitte to himself, baking pies and re...ading bedtime stories and chasing nightmares away. Her noisy, snot-nosed, clingy little brat just got in the way and spoiled things.
Then she died, and the things about home that had already been bad got ten times worse. Jerry had given it a lot of thought, and ended up concluding that it was all Nick’s fault. He decided to make Nick’s life as hard as Nick had made his. When the little snot-nosed brat ran away, Jerry had gone out and celebrated. And now there he was, or somebody who looked mighty like him, well fed, rosy cheeked, and cheerful until the moment his eyes met Jerry’s, when he took off down the street like the wimp he was.MoreLess
