The Witch's Children Go to School

The witch’s children need to help their friend Gemma. It’s her first day at school, and she’s terrified! So the Little One has a bright idea – and turns her into an ogre to give her courage. The trouble is that ogres don’t fit in at school! Never mind. The Little One knows just what to do – and turns the whole school into a storybook, which is a perfect place for an ogre. But while the witch’s children are very good at doing spells, they are not quite so good at undoing them! Who can help? This hysterical story of magic and muddles in the classroom is officially one of the funniest picture books you can buy!

Winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize 2008.
