Life on The Lizard
The latest in the Wizard on The Lizard series, but the first in the Lizard Culture series. The winter may not be a time for swimming and playing and surfing in the sea, but for those who live on this stormy peninsula, the wild winds and heavy swells are still very much part of daily life. See what happens when Awendrog visits a little cove, one Christmas Eve.
Latest Sea-Safety releases
The latest in the sea-safety series to hit the shelves. But what is going on? Everyone was having a lovely time at the beach but now they are all in terrible pain. Find out what's happening and why everyone needs Awendrog's special kind of magic to sort it all out.

Exciting news...
Delighted to announce that 'The Wizard on The Lizard Saves Stardust', and 'The Wizard on The Lizard and the Easter eggs-pedition', from the conservation series, were read out each day at The Cornish Seal Sanctuary. As part of their new initiative, 'Stories with the Seals', the Stardust story was being read in the underwater viewing area each lunchtime of the Easter holidays. Even long term resident, Banana, loved to come and listen to what Awendrog the wizard is up to on his Lizard adventures. Unfortunately, the stories are not running this year, but still go along and visit the beautiful seals and find the books in the sanctuary schop

World Book Day 2022
Excerpt from the school newsletter
"It was great to see you all dressed up as various book characters. You looked fantastic! Thank you to Sarah Shanahan-Mallows, who came to share her Lizard based books. The children enjoyed learning about Wizard Awendrog and his important messages. Thank you for the lovely book marks Sarah. Did you know that parts of our school logo features in Sarah’s books?"
What a great treat to have been invited to share my books with the children of Coverack school, and their superb teacher Lorraine Brown, on World Book Day. It was wonderful to see everyone dressed up as characters from their favourite books and to chat with them about the joy of reading and what they might be inspired to write about. Thank you for your warm welcome.
And what a lovely surprise to arrive there and see that their logo contained the Celtic symbol of the triquetra which is in Lizard Legacy, and emblems representing land, sea and sky. It was meant to be!
The summer holidays are nearly here. Awendrog will be about and about as usual and is looking forward to seeing everyone enjoying the sand, sea and sun. He has some very exciting news that he would like to share with you. He is getting his very own Instagram page. He is a little bit concerned about it because he is not really up to date with technology, (he is over a thousand years old, after all) but he is going to try to stay in touch with all his lovely friends and keep them up to date with all the Lizard magic.
Mordle Dordle, by the power of three...
remember to be safe when you're by the sea!
