I can see why it is widely believed that much of Hogwarts came from this little book. A sweet little story. 2nd grade reading level, give or take a year.

I am using this book for my thesis project on witchcraft in children's literature. I found it to be a great book. It is very well written and the characters are engaging and realistic. It is a good book for young readers and other lovers of children's literature. I highly recommend it.

It was quite short, but otherwise was a good book. In my opinion it wasn't really worth how much it was. It took me less than an hour to read it, so it wasn't very satisfying. The story is well written, though, and I did enjoy reading it. It is not quite the reading level that it claims to be, but it was a fun, easy Halloween book that was enjoyable.

I bought this as a Christmas present for my three-year-old granddaughter. It will have to be read to her, but her mommy reads her a lot anyway. I am looking forward to seeing if the kid likes it.

4.0 out of 5 stars My Daughter Liked it!
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2022

Bought this for my 12 year daughter to read. She really liked this book. She said, it was a funny book. She also liked how the witch was the underdog, underestimated, because she was not very good at being a witch. However, there is a surprise that I won't spoil for readers. Good book and my daughter wants to read the other books soon. Definitely recommended by this mom.

I think this is one of the best books a child could read. It is so fun and interesting to read about. My favourite part is when Miss hardbroom thanks Mildred for saving the school as she is warming her heart up to her. Mildred is one of the best characters I have ever read about 😊
