| Rumblewick's Diary
|
Overview / 简介: |
Rumblewick is a highly qualified right hand cat to the most unwilling witch in the kingdom. He's contractually bound to shape her into the most well-rounded, disgustingly terrible witch she can be, but unfortunately, Haggy would much rather be a normal little girl than do things like boil frogs and frighten children. Poor Rumblewick! Haggy's antics keep him on his toes, endlessly dodging the wrath of the Hags on High.
Here's the latest problem: Haggy Aggy wants to go to ballet school! She wants ballet shoes, a lovely pink tutu, and to be a star! That certainly isn't what a witch who WANTS to be a witch does, is it? Through humorously illustrated diary entries that are perfect for emerging readers, Rumblewick details life with Haggy, the loveable witch who just can't get with it!

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Grade 3–5—Haggy Aggy would prefer to be human, much to the chagrin of her cat, Rumblewick. She would rather spend her time doing "Othersider" things, like taking ballet, going to gym class, and having sleepovers with friends. Rumblewick does his best to get her to do her witchly duties to please the High Hags and witch society. The books are a diary of his misadventures and near-misses with disaster. Haggy Aggy uses magic to help her pass as human, and the books include a few of her spells to help improve her dance and gymnastic skills. They also have a lot of full-page cartoon illustrations and spot art that will appeal to children, especially reluctant readers. There are a few difficult vocabulary words throughout the texts, but the stories are frothy and funny. Quick, lighthearted reads.—Jane Cronkhite, San Jose Public Library, CA

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Haggy Aggy is horrible at being a witch. She would rather be around humans, much to the chagrin of her familiar, Rumblewick.
Using her magical abilities to be better at ballet and gymnastics, her use of magic keeps getting her noticed by the High Hags and the witch society. The problem is, these witches expect Rumblewick to teach Haggy Aggy how to be the most well-rounded, disgustingly terrible witch she can be.
Will Rumblewick be able to keep Haggy's human obsession a secret?
A cute, quick tale for reluctant readers. The characters are likable and fun to read about in this book and the others that follow in the series, even the High Hags and the witch society. Those who like fantasy, witches, and realistic fiction will enjoy reading MY UNWILLING WITCH GOES TO BALLET SCHOOL.
