Kaytek the Wizard. Kaytek, a schoolboy who wants to become a wizard, is surprised to discover that, with practice, he is able to perform magic spells and change reality. With prospects of mischief in mind, he conceals his powers and playfully causes strange incidents in his school and neighborhood.
Kaytek, like Harry is a practicing wizard. Unlike Harry, however, who attends a professional wizard academy, Kaytek is generally an autodidact whose attempt at controlling his own magical powers turns into a quest for understanding his personality and the rules of society.
