Maximum Magic Karleen Tauszik

After spring break, most of the fifth graders at Oak Grove Elementary School are crazy with crushes--even Will's best friend, Josh.



Love is in the air-even Grandma's gone all googly-eyed over a guy! And is the rumor true that magician Max Goodman is dating Will's teacher, Ms. Moon?

Will wants to steer clear of getting wrapped up in the classroom romances. He befriends the new kid, Stu, a foster child recently placed with a local family.



Can the boys avoid the infatuation infection that's spreading like a bad flu? Does love conquer all, or will magic have the upper hand? And can love or magic (or both) save Stu from returning to the Children's Home?

In this contemporary adventure series, author Karleen Tauszik uses humor, tension and, of course, magic to create the perfect stories for middle grade readers.

THE INFATUATION INFECTION is the third and final book in the Maximum Magic series of chapter books for ages 9-12.



The Maximum Magic books are contemporary adventures written in under 20,000 words, with fast-moving chapters and best of all, magic!
