Békés Pál: The clumsy wizard
The clumsy wizard has been called the "Hungarian Harry Potter"; and indeed, he rivals the world-famous tale in wit, imagination and surprising twists. In fact! For us Hungarians, it means even more, because it also reveals things that only we really understand and that only our hearts can relate to.

The protagonist of this magical tale is a clumsy apprentice magician, Fitzhuber the Bee, who has been awarded his wizard's diploma but is so clumsy that he is relegated to a job in a neighbourhood magician's office. What can you do in such a boring place? First of all, you need to make friends, because it's easier when you're together! Bumblebee meets a young boy called Elias Tobias, with whom he has fantastic adventures. Sometimes they need their wits, sometimes their dexterity, sometimes both, to solve the funniest and most twisted tasks.
But as well as all the jokes, the story also teaches eternal values such as loyalty, friendship and standing up for your mates and friends. And it also teaches us about the power and love of fairy tales and art, because we must never give up that there is something fabulous and magical in everyone and everywhere!
