Equally funny and poignant, Poole’s memoir-in-essays is like David Sedaris by way of Judd Apatow.

A touching and RIOTOUSLY funny story about one boy’s search for his personal and creative identities. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll keep your jazz hands to yourself, Mister!

Judith Newmanauthor of To Siri, With Love

Oh, my… Eric Poole’s journey of self-delusion and self-discovery had me laughing one minute, crying the next, and rooting for him every second. This charming book is a TV series waiting to happen!

It made me jump up and down and holler ’Yummy’, like my grandmother Mary Lucille’s red velvet cake!

An absolute must-read book for the outcast in all of us, WHERE’S MY WAND is hilarious and heartfelt. I could not put this book down. It’s a rare treat.

Jim BrickmanRecording Artist

Gut-splittingly funny, Wand is also a deeply moving account of a boy’s attempt to control his world with his own brand of magic.
