Witch Baby and Me

By Debi Gliori

this is a book for 7 and up.

Daisy Macrae is a very unusual child..  Unlike you and me she is a Witch
Baby.  

She was made in a fire by three Witches (The Sisters of Hiss) using
magic potions, but was taken from the hospital by mistake.  So only her
big sister Lilly knows she is a witch!

She has a spirit dog called WayWoof which only she can see, but everyone
can smell - because he stinks of rotten cheese!

Daisy can turn into a dragon, but nobody will believe Lilly, even though
they can see the claw marks on the walls and the scorch marks on the
ceiling.

The Three Witch Sisters of Hiss must catch Daisy and bring her back to
their mountain home before she turns 40, and if they do, she will turn
into a proper witch, with warts from her nose to her toes and a high ,
squeaky voice.   Daisy does not know she is being watched by the
Witches, but they secretly plot to snatch her back.

Daisy, Lilly and get into a lot of sticky situations together, but they
always end up having a laugh.

I thought this book was really funny.  On a scale of 1 to 10 I would
give it a 10.  I can assure you I will read it again!  It is an
emotional funny book mixed with different feelings and kids all over
will really enjoy it.

I just love this book, you cannot beat it.
