What Parents Need to Know
About The Worst Witch at School
Parents need to know that this book comprises two titles in the Worst Witch series: The Worst Witch and The Worst Witch Strikes Again. It's a great precursor for readers not ready for the Harry Potter series mixing friendship, adventures, and fantasy. The accident-prone but likeable Mildred Hubble experiences a series of mishaps in witch school causing her humiliation, fear (not much), and frustration. Children fall from broomsticks, are turned into animals by the wrong spells, and are threatened by a band of misfit witches.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Mildred's challenges. Can readers relate to her awkwardness physically, as well as in social and academic situations? What about Mildred is so likeable? Does she bring this trouble on herself, and if so, how? Is she a problem-solver and, if not, what skills does she need to work on?
