Product Description

Book Description

This fabulous book is one in a brand new series of four Winnie young fiction titles


Product Description

Life is never dull for Winnie the Witch! In 'Hot Cross Winnie' a trip to the shops turns into a desperate hunt for a missing Wilbur; in 'Winnie's Book Day' a problem with reading doesn't stop Winnie from bringing stories to life for a whole class full of children; in 'Winnie Gets Cracking' she creates a 'chocodile' capable of laying chocolate eggs; and in 'Whizz-Bang Winnie' Winnie gets her skates on to speed past the motorised competition in a 'hot wheels' race. Four crazily funny stories featuring everyone's favourite witch, her big black cat, Wilbur, and a zany supporting cast of new characters. Korky Paul's exuberant black line illustrations complement the humour, slapstick, and moments of real drama that run through each story. Pure magic!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly designed for the developing reader. , 19 Jun 2008
Many parents and children will be familiar with Winnie the Witch and her cat Wilbur from the picture books by Valerie Thomas.

Laura Owen has teamed up with Korky Paul who illustrated the original picture books to provide short chapter books about the zany witch designed for the newly confident reader.

There are four short stories in this book, each complete in itself and at just the right length for a young reader to feel a real sense of achievement when they've read to the end.

The Korky Paul illustrations are the link between the original pictures books and these early readers. Here the illustrations are in black and white but they lose none of their original energy and humour. Even the page numbers are in the form of individual illustrations.

The stories will stand several readings and the illustrations are bound to be favourites, with more details to be found on each reading. The lack of complexity in the stories does mean that they're unlikely to remain in favour much beyond the age of about seven so I would buy for the younger child.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, 11 Oct 2008
A Kid's Review
This is a very, very, good book. I liked the fact that is written in 'chapters' instead of a picture book. I read most of it myself but mummy read some of it to me as well. My favourite story was 'Whizz-bang Winnie' when she and Wilbur win the race. Mummy's favourite was 'Hot Cross Winnie' because she liked it when the little girls took Wilbur and put hair clips in his fur. I am going to read 'Mini Winnie' next. Tom, age 6.

4.0 out of 5 stars Winnie, but a little more grown up.
I didnt realise before I bought this book that it is for a slightly older child. No nice glossy pictures, and I found the stories tend to go on a bit, I`m always trying to cut... Read more
