A Witch in the Classroom!
Illustrated by Jan Lewis
Described as 'perfect for building reading confidence this 'Young Corgi' is part of a series in which most titles are by well-established authors. This story about Abigail who discovers her witchily powers enable her to cast spells on her classmates is divided into twelve chapters of varying length. Not all of the pages are illustrated and it will take some stamina for young readers to get through all of the text.
