Summary: I thought only I knew
Review: about this book. I hated to read when I was a child, but I remember finding this book in my school library in the 6th grade (1981) and I read it and fell in love with the story and the characters. I even started eating peanut butter and lettuce sandwiches. None of my friends seemed to be interested in this book. The idea of witches turned them off I suppose. I remember at our parties as a girl they never even wanted to try a seance. I wanted to buy this book for my own collection, but I had no idea that it was so expensive. I guess I will have to pay for it though so I can revisit my childhood and share the tale with my son.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Magical Reading Experience
Review: I bought this book during a book sale at my elementary school way back in 1968, and I still have it. I always did some reading in bed, right before falling asleep, and this book was wonderful. It's an adventure with an extremely satisfying ending. I never realized it is now selling for such a high price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Captivating and Unique
Review: I don't know if there is a witch tale with more charm and appeal than Little Witch. I read it 45 years ago and it literally cast a spell on me!! Minx triumphing over her predicaments gave me hope. Not only did the story itself enchant me, but the illustrations were equally delightful and appealing. Copies are rare, it seems, and expensive but I'd gladly pay top dollar to have it in my hands once more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Little Witch
Review: I loved this book from when I was a little. I remember everytime I went to the library at school I had to get this book. It brings back so many fond memories of that time in my life. I was able to get this book from the publisher a while back and still love the book after all these years.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: So happy to share a childhood favorite with my own daughter!
Review: I loved this story as a little girl, and I was so happy to find a copy to give to my own daughter. It's her favorite book, too!

The heroine is a really good little girl, torn by the demands of her evil mother, and her desire to have friends and help others.

It's a sweet little fairytale-type story. Easy reading for kids in the 3rd grade & up reading level.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A book I never should have given away
Review: I owned this book as a child, having gotten it out of a pile of withdrawn books at my library. I read it more times than I could count and absolutely loved it. Alas, when I was about 13 or 14 I had the stupidity to give it away when I decided I had outgrown it. It didn't take me very long to realize that I was wrong, and I've spent the last several years looking for it. It's admittedly written for children ranging from about 8 to 10 or 12, but it's one of those classics that anyone can enjoy.

Summary: Fun
Review: I still have the copy that I swiped from my sister more than 40 years ago. It is pleasant and fun, not an insult to the intelligence as are so many kids books today, and not a tract on recycling or global warming. Recommended for parents who want their kids to grow up to be something besides politically correct automatons. These days, to read a book merely for pleasure is a revolutionary act. (You know, I'm sure, that they have rewritten Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys to make them politically correct. Yecch!)

Get this one, and also "Mrs. Coverlet's Magicians," and then really do the kid a favor and buy her the new "Annotated Huckleberry Finn." Watch out, though, the child might learn to think for himself, and then what will his teachers do?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Loved This Book!
Review: I was read this book in the first grade by one of the world's best teacher's who was one of the most encouraging ladies when it came to reading. When she read that book to me six years ago I was enchanted. I loved every moment of it. Although I haven't been able to get my hands on a copy in six or seven years, I still remember it to be the best book ever. It has such a rare humour that you are sure to love it at any age.

Rating: 5 stars
