Bookroo's summary

Hank is determined to make his sister Emily's birthday unforgettable. With Ralph's Reptile Show unavailable, Hank becomes 'The Westside Wizard,' planning to conjure a snake from thin air. But when his disguise fails, will his magical surprise turn into a birthday blunder? Dive into this tale of sibling love, unexpected twists, and the chaos of a well-intentioned plan gone awry.

From the publisher

Hank’s sister Emily wants Ralph’s Reptile Show to perform at her birthday party more than anything, but Ralph is booked solid. So Hank comes up with a plan: he’ll disguise himself as a magician called The Westside Wizard and pull a snake from thin air! But when Hank’s true identity is revealed during his performance, his good deed might just turn into a huge disaster.
