Titchy-witch is desperate to know what's in the Forbidden Forest near Grand-witch's house. With the help of an invisibility spell, she might just get her wish...
Quick Summary
If your kid loves silly, magical stories, this quick read about a little witch who just can't resist a mystery is perfect. Titchy-witch is determined to discover what's hidden in the Forbidden Forest even though she's been warned to stay away and her cleverness with an invisibility spell makes for some giggles along the way. It's short enough for newer readers to finish in one sitting but has just enough adventure to keep them turning pages. Kids who enjoy plucky, mischievous characters who don't always follow the rules will get a big kick out of her. Parents will appreciate that it's lighthearted fun without anything too scary, though younger kids might find the "forbidden" forest element a little mysterious and exciting. Perfect for kids transitioning from picture books to early chapter books, or as a quick bedtime story. It reminds me a bit of the Ivy + Bean series in that it's got a confident, spunky main character kids can really root for.
