5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic storybook to read over and over!!!!!, 13 Nov 2000
By A Customer
My mum first bought me a copy of this when she fell in love with it...now it has become the most requested book in my classroom! Winnie has a black house and a black cat called Wilbur. This leads to many accidents when Winnie sits, trips and falls over poor Wilbur when she cannot distinguish him from the furniture. Winnie solves the problem by turning Wilbur into many different colours. Wilbur however, is unhappy and Winnie realises that she should do some redecorating in order to rectify the dilemma. A great story, where any child can join in with the "Acabradabra's". The other books are great in the series and we even have the computer game/story which all the children love to play. Being a teacher I read alot of stories and Winnie the Witch is one that I never mind re-reading once a week when the children ask for it!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book. Fantastic illustrations, 3 Nov 2003
By A Customer
If you are a parent looking out for great childrens books, (like I am), this is one of them!! Winnie is a good normal whitch, but sometims when she waves her wand she gets things muddled up a bit. Three fun stories told at a childs level; 3 to 7 year olds. Just the right amoung of text for both parent and child. The illustrations are so wonderful and detailed that during every read you and your child will discover something new lurking in these magical pages. I love this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Charming and clever with beautifully crafted simple prose, 1 Feb 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Winnie the Witch (Paperback)
On-line buyers, you have a handicap with this book - you cannot see inside the pages. If you could, you would definitely buy it. The story is charming the pictures fascinating, and the prose is probably the best I have seen in a book aimed at 3-6 year olds. Every word is perfectly chosen so that each sentence leads neatly into the next. I have read it aloud to my children probably a hundred times and still enjoy it.
