Summary: The Horrible Day
Review: I would give The Witches a 5. I thought the story was going to be boring. this story is about 100's of witches turning little children into mice. My favorite part was when he & his granny were onthe balconey trying to get him down into the grand high witch's room. I did like this story because it was funny.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good book
Review: I liked the book. I thought it would be a terrific book and it was. It's about this witch who turns the grandson and his friend into mice. They do everything that they can to try to stop her. They try to go after the stuff that turned them into a mouse. They try to protect any other innocent child to be turned into a mouse. I liked the end of the story. Something good happened in the end. You should read this book, it is wonderful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I couldn't stop reading it
Review: I thought The Witches would be boring. It sounded boring because of the name. The book is about a boy who gets turned into a mouse by witches. The witches also turned another boy into a mouse after the first one. Throughout the story Bruno, the other boy, and the boy's grandmother are trying to get back at the witches. My favorite part was when the boy got the witches back and turned them all into mice. I liked the ending because it was funny. I want to read it all over again so I can laugh all over again. If you like a funny book read The Witches.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Witches is a must have book.
Review: This book is my favorite of all time. It was great from beginning to end. Its about a boy and his grandmother who try to kill all the witches in Norway and England. I liked the part when they got all the money in the trunk. I liked the ending.Even though, what happened to the little boy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Loads of Fun!
Review: The Witches by Roald Dahl was a true treat for me. One day while bored I came across this book and voila, I read it. It has a truly funny story that any child or adult alike would love. The book is about "a boy,"(the boy is not named) and his grandmother who encounter The Witches. The boy accidentaly gets into a top secret meeting of the witches and learns their new plan. He must stop them immediatly. With the help from his grandmother and food loving bruno(who was turned into a mouse by the witches with the secret formula) fight all the witches and bring the highest witch down. They finally succeed and the witches get a taste of their own medicine. This book is a really funny book that all people will enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars

At the hotel they are staying in, there are many witches, including the Grand High Witch. The Grand High Witch is the greatest and most powerful witch in the world. What will the witches have in store for this boy?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Witchly Fantastic!
Review: I thought The Witchs was a great book! It was very exciting every time the boy tried to stop the witches. Some parts are very funny like when the grandma dances around waving her cane in the air. I think most of his books are good but this one is great! I strongly suggest you read it too!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Promoting Ignorance is Promoting Hate
Review: This book is a horrid misrepresentation of Paganism and women in general. It is clear that the author is writing from a point of view of ignorance and hate. It promotes stereotypes and the hatred that results from his uneducated opinion. No matter what your views on Paganism might be, this book also celebrates misogyny. Children are prompted to be suspicious and distrustful of their female teachers and even their mothers. This is a loathesome way for the author to sell his uninformed opinions to the public - through children.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Nasty Little Number
Review: "A REAL WITCH hates children with a red-hot sizzling hatred that is more sizzling and red-hot than any hatred you could possibly imagine....Her passion is to do away with them, one by one. It is all she thinks about the whole day long. Even if she is working as a cashier in a supermarket or typing letters for a businessman or driving around in a fancy car (and she could be doing any of these things), her mind will always be plotting and scheming and churning and burning and whizzing and phizzing with murderous bloddthirsty thoughts."

As a representative of the Neo-Pagan community I do not find this funny. Should I? Would any Witch wish for their children to read this? I don't think so. To get some idea of how offensive this is to a modern Wiccan/Pagan substitute the word Jew or Jews for Witch and Witches and then imagine that you are Jewish.

Shame on you Mr. Dahl for writing it. Shame on you Puffin for publishing it.
