It was kind of nice because witches don't really like bicycles

It was funny. Miss Beasley was my favourite. She was a detective. I would recommend it.

I liked the witch the best because she didn’t like the bike and I thought that was funny. I laughed when she fell off the bike. 5 stars given, I would definitely recommend this for someone else to read.

The book was quite tricky to read. It was about witches and little girls riding bicycles.
