My Friend Is A Witch. Morgana’s Diadem – vol. 3

Fantasy
Humorous

My friend is a witch! That means magic… and a whole lot of trouble. So take my advice: whatever you do, don’t open the last door on the right.

Miriam’s friend Priscilla is the clumsiest little witch ever. Bringing the real diadem of the famous witch Morgana to school? Bad idea! Especially when the snooty Clarabella puts it on… and turns into a horse! To reverse the spell, Miriam, Priscilla, and Bartholomeus must travel to Avalon, where they’ll meet King Arthur and discover the island’s mysterious power.

  • A fun way of talking about the themes of friendship and accepting diversity.
  • Priscilla is an inexperienced little witch, and her emotions always get her into trouble. Miriam is intrigued and amused by the magical world, but she’s also a little scared of it sometimes, because it’s difficult to fully understand. By experiencing each other’s worlds, the two will learn more and enjoy an unforgettable adventure.

From the same series: A Strange Classmate, A Mummy At The Market.
