Stories of Witches is a captivating collection of short narratives designed for emergent and early readers, making it an excellent resource for building reading confidence. Developed in collaboration with reading expert Alison Kelly, the book ensures the text is accessible and supportive for children aged five to seven who are just beginning to read independently. The stories themselves delve into the magical, mischievous, and often funny world of witches, featuring tales of spells, broomsticks, and unexpected magical mishaps. Each story is crafted to be engaging and visually stimulating, typically accompanied by friendly illustrations (often by Stephen Cartwright in this series) that aid comprehension and add charm. The collection balances the traditional, fantastical elements of witch lore with narratives that are light-hearted and appropriate for a young audience, successfully combining good, simple storytelling with a structured reading experience, perfect for fostering a lifelong love of books and fantasy
