Wizard Of Washington Square

"I'm the Wizard of Washington Square." From behind the door, into the sunlight, stepped the weirdest little man David had ever seen. He had a long, silky white beard that was parted slightly off center and flowed down to his waist. He was no taller than a four-year-old. He wore a robe of inky blue and a pointed hat that sparkled with stars. "How do you do," said the little man to David in a voice full of apologies. "I'm the Wizard of Washington Square." David meant to say "How do you do" back, but he just stood there with his mouth open. Even D. Dog was too surprised to bark.Yolen, Jane is the author of 'Wizard Of Washington Square', published 2005 under ISBN 9780765350169 and ISBN 0765350165.
