Sunday Times Children's Book Of The Week
The Worst Wich Saves The Day by Jill Murphy
Like its predecessors, Murphy’s new book is as much about school relationships as it is about magic: about fear of the strict teacher, and of not being good enough; about the know-all who sucks up to the teachers; about finding friends and learning to fit in. Broomsticks, spells and familiars are the props in the drama of school life... ...A great joy of the series is Murphy’s black- and-white illustrations, entirely clear and in tune with the text.
