The Worst Witch Summary

The Worst Witch by Jill Murphy

'Riding a broomstick is no easy matter!'

Lovable but disaster-prone Mildred is a trainee at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, but she's making an awful mess of it. She keeps getting her spells wrong and crashing her broomstick. Yet she manages to scrape by until she turns Ethel, the teacher's pet, into her deadly enemy and chaos ensues . . .

Jill Murphy's much-loved classic if full of fun, magic and mayhem!
