"The appearance of a white cricket on the hearth spells doom." "It is unlucky to sit under a hawthorn tree on May Day, Midsummer Eve, or Halloween as the fairies will carry you away. It is, however, a strong protection from lightning if a sprig of hawthorn is kept in the house." "To make a rainbow disappear, make a cross of sticks with a stone at the end of each stick." "Bees hate quarrels and swearing and will leave the hive if they should hear any." "Teeth that fall out should always be sprinkled "The appearance of a white cricket on the hearth spells doom."

LOVED this and I'm a grown up (well, age-wise). My fave book when I was young was The Witch's Catalog and this is the perfect book to go along with that. Witches were always my favorite characters. This book is so much fun and the illustrations are terrific. Great for any age! LOVED this and I'm a grown up (well, age-wise).

Me encantó. Risas garantizadas (gracias a su humor negro). Original y divertido (trae incluso los signos del zodiaco, recetas de cocina, manualidades y mucho más...) Totalmente recomendado para brujas/os o aprendices. "Los cumpleaños de la bruja: La bruja del lunes es de cara espantosa, Tampoco la del martes resulta muy donosa; La del miércoles tiene seis palmos de nariz, Pies como la del jueves no te harían feliz. La del viernes hornea venenosos pasteles, Te mira la del sábado y sufres dos teleles, Pero h Me encantó. Risas garantizadas (gracias a su humor negro).

I loved this book. I found the book to be tongue and cheek. In chapter 2, The Witch's Kitchen, example for substitution are given. Instead of worms use spaghetti. Instead of dried beetles use lentils. You see where it's going. Also the illustration I liked. The author was also responsible for those too. I loved this book.

Another book I couldn't leave the library without when I was a kid. It drove my mother insane, but I was obsessed with this book and would love to buy a copy now, as an adult.

As an odd little girl, witches were my favorites instead of princesses. Since it was my most firm belief that I was one of them witches, of course(!) I had to have this guide. After all, it was very much a matter of principle! Thus, it became part of my book collection at home. To this day I can honestly say it is still so-much-fun! It is extremely charming and fully illustrated. There are black and white pictures and the ones in beautiful colors.

I had to have this guide. After all, it was very much a matter of principle! Thus, it became part of my book collection at home. To this day I can honestly say it is still so-much-fun! It is extremely charming and fully illustrated. There are black and white pictures and the ones in beautiful colors. The drawings are a caricature of how witches should look like in common lore, and it just makes it all the more funny to look at. Add to it the clumsiness of the characters and their failed attempts to do this and that. But what can you learn from this book? Well, those eleven lessons are a treasure to every aspiring young witch: learn how to furnish your house properly; how to cook as a witch should; how to properly attend to your garden; read the future; cast a spell (mwahahah); be beautiful and fashionable (so funny!); includes some suggestions of favorite past times and parties, plus a look onto the modern witch. It is a harmless and joyful book, capable to entertain a child for years. Besides, it looks gorgeous and who wouldn’t want to have such a companion among the shelves? Couldn’t write a higher praise for such a beloved book.

I've been trying to track down this book for a very long time. I loved it as a kid but could never remember the name of it as an adult. After finally discovering the title and author, then the obstacle was finding it for lower than $40 online. But I finally have a copy and it's just fantastic as I remember. The art is really great and I like how it goes back and forth from just silly made up stuff to actual recipes and knitting patterns you can do. I can't wait to share this with my future kids!

Awesome book, funny with cool and creepy activities too
Emmy –
Very cute and funny. I laughed out loud several times; but some of it was a bit cringey and some parts felt repetitive.
Vic –
Quando eu era criança simplesmente amava pegar esse livro emprestado da escola, muito bom! É nostálgico para mim.

This is a everything need to know guide for witches. There is a section on choosing the right home, a witch's kitchen and garden, fortune-telling, castingspells and other things a witch may need to know.

I LOVE this book! Read it every year.

Awesome Kept me entertained for hours when I was younger. Not much of a novel, more of a picture book without a story crossed with a finding book without things to find.

Un manual para todas aquellas brujas que quieren ser profesionales con numerosos tips que van desde la casa ideal, hechizos y cocina. Un libro divertido, aunque es para niños me entretuve leyendolo.
