Not Just a Witch
(Macmillan Children's Books)
978-0330316309, RRP £3.99, Paperback
8-10 Junior/Middle
Belief is elasticated as usual with improbable magic, ace villains, dotty old dears, a mad-cap dash through the plot and sensible children. Here, however, the author has brewed a little infusion of animal rights, anti-intensive farming, the proper treatment of OAPs and anti-racism. The result isn't heavily ladled but a fast, funny tale with a stinging bite!
