Description

Winner at the 2012 International Latino Book Awards. An entertaining and bewitchingly illustrated guide that will delight those who dare to venture into the mysterious witches' world.

Three days ago, my brother and I received the most mysterious letter from Aunt Amarga: “Dear niece and nephew, There’s not much time left... Do you want to learn everything you’ve ever wanted to know but have never before known because nobody has ever known? In short: Do you want to know if witches really exist?”

Being a witch is hard work, especially because they have to keep it a secret all the time! Being evil, flying in those impossible broomsticks, mixing all kinds of plants together to create the perfect evil potions and spells… it is an enduring task! Aunt Margaret is a witch, and probably the only one left. That is why she decides to share this Witches Handbook with her nephews so that all the all-time secrets of witches don’t go along with her!

Readers of all ages will laugh along as they learn everything about the magic world of witches.

Reviews

"Mónica Carretero expertly uses this medium to create bright and colorful characters that come to life on paper. She has my deepest respect as an illustrator and the illustrations in this book make me want to see more of her work. Each character is carefully planned and full of detail that manages to be captivating but not overwhelming." —Once Upon a Book
