Follow one little witch as she tries to cast spells on some innocent
woodland creatures. Each time she tries a bad spell, the witch gets an
itch that sends her spells off in all sorts of unexpected directions...
Nayu's thoughts
People
are always surprised to learn I was quite a madam when I was younger,
and could probably give this little witch a few lessons in moody
attitude. Her mannerisms made me giggle as the feelings behind them
were familiar ones,
especially as more spells kept going wrong. Encouraging good feelings
can make such a difference to a person's day – or to her spell
casting as the little witch finally learns. I liked the sense of
action and flow of the magic on the pages from both the story and the
illustrations. It did make me wonder what havoc the little witch
would cause when she became a teenager!
