The Worst Witch All at Sea
by Jill Murphy
The school decamps to a cold seaside castle for half term, and Mildred smuggles her cat along, which is where the trouble starts.
A story about children and witches and wizards, funny and warm in tone. We would put it with children of 7–9, and at a reading age of about 8 for reading alone.
Nothing flagged
We have not flagged any content in this one that a parent would usually want warning about.
Part of a series
This is book 4 of the The Worst Witch series, so there is more to read if it goes down well — which is worth a great deal with a reluctant reader.

Or let them write their own.
Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
