About the Book

“It’s not my fault.”  The words just seem to jump out of Fred’s mouth time after time.  The trouble is no one believes him.  Once again Fred finds himself in the office of Ms. Loudypants, school principal.  It isn’t like he brought the newt into the class, he didn’t!  But getting his name on the Discipline Board is one thing, discovering a gnome hidden behind a door in the trunk in the basement, well, that’s something else entirely!

The Magical Adventures of Fred Potato-Head is a children’s adventure story filled with silliness, laughter and heart-warming moments.  It explores the decisions and dilemmas faced by a young boy trying to make sense of his world…and the magical one he accidentally discovers.   

This story is geared towards the junior reader (8 to 12 years) but is amusing for all ages.  Children will quickly get caught up in Fred’s world, and share a number of laughs, as he deals with all the strange and magical problems that come his way.  


About the Author

As a teacher, Michael Odfried Wendler has found himself immersed in the silly sense of humour of grade 4 children.  To no one’s surprise, he fits right in.

Michael has extensive experience in the Arts.  He has had paintings distributed by Fallowfield Gallery, danced for Le Groupe de la Place Royale, and had his first play workshopped by the Atelier of the National Arts Centre in Ottawa at age 17. 

His latest interest and passion is children’s literature.  Here he is able to bring to life the ideas, the laughter, the silliness, the love and the sharing that has touched his life everyday for the last five years.
