An illustrated edition of the author’s first novel—the hilarious, viral hit 'Harris bin Potter and the Stoned Philosopher', in which a bespectacled boy finds out that magic is disappearing in Singapore... and has to stop it.

Harris bin Potter is an orphan who loves to play void deck football like any other Singaporean boy. But when he discovers he is a parceltongue (i.e., he can talk to boxes...er, parcels), his world changes. Harris learns about his magical lineage and enrols at the MOE-approved Hog-Tak-Halal-What School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

There, he is sorted into the House of Fandi and gets caught up in an insane adventure to save Singapore’s magical folk from being turned into kosongs.
