The Worst Witch to the Rescue
Jill Murphy
The Worst Witch to the Rescue by Jill Murphy is a classic Worst Witch adventure starring lovable but accident-prone Mildred Hubble. 'It isn't actually a known spell. I sort of made it up myself.' Mildred Hubble always tries her best, but her spells never seem to go right. She may be the worst witch at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, but she's the best friend you could ever have. Millions of readers love her and so will you . . . Jill Murphy started putting books together (literally with a stapler), when she was six. The Worst Witch was first published in 1974 and this much-loved classic has been enjoyed by readers for more than 30 years. Jill Murphy also written and illustrated several award-winning picture books for younger children. If you'd like to read more of Mildred's disastrous adventures at Miss Cackle's Academy: The Worst Witch, The Worst Witch Strikes Again, A Bad Spell for the Worst Witch, The Worst Witch All at Sea, The Worst Witch Saves the Day and The Worst Witch and the Wishing Star are also available from Puffin and are perfect for children aged 5-9.

My favourite characters is Speedy/Einstein because the way he get Ethel in trouble for saying that Ethel knocked Mildred bag down the tree on purpose and she threw Mildred's work in the bin after coping it and she trying a snake spell on Mildred 's pots and she made Drusilla put Speedy/Einstein in the pine tree instead of doing it her self.

I loved the tortoise that Mildred brought in because Ethel hallow stole her idea and stole her tortoise!!! Mildred had to save her tortoise!

This book starts with all the wtiches thinking Mildred turned her pottery into snakes and she made smiley faces for her project. But it was actually Ethel Hallow, the bad witch, who turned Mildred's things into those things. Mildred's real project was to make animals talk. Ethel printed Mildred's project out and threw Mildred's work into the bin. At the end, Miss Hardbroom and Miss Cackle found out that Ethel stole Mildred's work because Mildred's tortoise told them and Ethel got told off. My favourite part was when Mildred saved her tortoise in the pine tree.

In this book the worst witch has a holiday project stolen. Has to rescue a tortoise from an enormous tree and has to show the headmistress that it can speak. I would recommend this to someone who likes to read adventure books.

I like that in there you can be witches and that Mildred rescued her tortoise even though she put herself in danger. I would recommend this book to somebody else even though it's got a lot of pages.
