Produktbeschreibung

Now, for the first time in thirty years, this handsome hardcover edition of the Little Witch's magical adventures will once again delight both old fans and new readers alike. Nine-year-old Minikin Snickasnee (Minx for short) wishes she were not a witch's child. Her greatest ambition is to go to school and make friends with children her own age. But the evil Madame Snickasnee doesn't care what her daughter wants--she spends all her time turning local villagers into flower pots, making Black Spell Brew, and causing trouble on her broomstick. So when Minx decides to conjure up her own spells in the magic cauldron one night while the old witch is out, there's no telling what could happen! Join the feisty Minx as she finally meets some new friends--and learns all about friendship, courage, and standing up for what's right. Will little Minx finally find her place in the world?
