THE ICABOG II
This story is inspired by J K Rowling's novel 'The Icabog'. I sincerely request you to read that book before reading this one or it would not make any sense. I know it is only 10 pages but I have made this story as interesting as possible narrating the aftermath of what will happen to the small city of Cornucopia with the two Icabogs and Prime Minister Good Fellow.

Suggested age, readers, English difficulty and US school grade are separate labels. Age groups are guidance based on source information or editorial review; unreviewed books are “Not assessed”. A US grade is assigned only with source information or a documented assessment; otherwise it is “Not assessed”. Levels use A1–C2 to indicate reading difficulty. StoryWeaver levels 1/2/3/4 use our approximate A1/A2/B1/B2 guide, labelled “estimated”; this is not an official equivalence. A book-specific assessment takes priority. Other unassessed books are labelled “Not assessed”. Source StoryWeaver levels are retained separately. Classics retain their original English.
