First Prize for the Worst Witch by Jill Murphy
I am a hopeless case - everything I do always does go wrong in the end.Mildred Hubble may be the worst witch at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, but she's the best friend you'll ever have.
-----
Summer term has started at Miss Cackle's Academy, and somehow the disaster-prone Mildred has made it to Year Four.
Even though everyone knows her as the Worst Witch in the School, she's secretly set her sights on winning the school's highest honour.
Yes, Mildred wants to be Head Girl
Can she stay out of trouble and prove to everyone that even the worst witch can turn her fortunes around?
Not if her arch-enemy Ethel Hallow has anything to do with it...
