Hilda & Richie's Wizard got a great review in the August 2022 edition of the Midwest Book Review!
"Hilda and Richie's Wizard is a fun picture book story of two foxes who find themselves in a tailspin when the gift of a family relic is lost in the river. Hilda trusted little Richie to take care of the pendant, but his brand of "fun is too much for the pendant" and its chain breaks in the midst of his active young life. Hilda will certainly be angry with him. That's when Mister Abra steps forth to offer a bit of magic to resolve his dilemma. The savvy, quick wizard can solve Richie's problem...but not without a cost.
Max West incorporates a valuable lesson about honesty and owning up to mistakes as Richie assesses his relationship with Hilda and whether it can withstand the truth. Simple yet inviting color illustrations add interest to the tale, which poses the dilemma of how difficult it can be to be honest. Does Richie dare to risk a wizard's wrath by forgetting his obligation? A fine story evolves, holding a message that read-aloud parents will find important and realistic."
More proof you should go buy the book!
