The Worst Witch All a Sea by Jill Murphy

4 stars Another great book in the Worst Witch series. I really enjoy this series. Mildred’s character is very likeable and it is interesting to read about all of the adventures she has and the trouble she finds herself in. Simply language, but a nice adventure story. The ending was a bit predictable, but I…

Having Junie narrate the story with all of her age-appropriate grammatical errors was very irritating to me. It really took away…
