Muddlewitch loves doing magic tricks! What a delight she is, turning a world of simple block colours into a kaleidoscope of unexpected dots, stripes and squares. This interactive book, constructed of durable double card, has a tab for pulling on every page, to reveal Muddlewitch’s Magic. Green apples become striped in pink, orange and blue. A blue chair is spangled with red, blue and purple stars, and the goldfish, much to his surprise, becomes covered in brilliantly coloured flowers! When friend Glitterwitch appears, Muddlewitch magicks her! But Glitterwitch has magic too, so the merriment is doubled. Muddlewitch is a typical Sharratt character, bold, full of fun and quite enchanting. She is bound to entertain young readers, empowered to perform her magic by pulling the tabs. And there is loads of Maths pattern work here!
