Mildred is growing, but so is her special, unfortunate ability to get herself into trouble. Sometimes she asks for it, sometimes she doesn’t—just trying to do what seems best—but regardless, her intentions are always right.In this third book in The Worst Witch series, Mildred tries to comfort new students at the Academy (one of which turns out to be the little sister of her nemesis) with a terrifying story of magic put to the worst use. Not the most appropriate thing to do to new students, but Mildred thought they would be amused.
So now her nemesis wants to take revenge on her for what she did to her sister. Granted, it’s the hundredth time someone puts a spell on Mildred, but the stories are always about how she gets rid of the spells, not how she earns them, which is never truly hard.
I liked this sequel a lot. I find Jill Murphy’s writing so perfect for middle grade/children’s books. That’s why I think these books would have worked even better if they’d been longer and more complex. Though they work this way too. The thing is, the stories are always short because they retell a misadventure of Mildred’s. They never go very, very far. But they do the trick, which is to put young (or old) readers in a mighty good mood.

When Ethel discovered that Mildred told her little sister a frightening story about a person being turned into a frog, she decided to have her revenge. Soon Mildred went missing and a strange frog
Review to come :)
This was such a fun and charming book! I had an opportunity to read the third book in the series first, but it didn't take away from my enjoyment and I actually wish I could have known these books as a kid. The character of Mildred is absolutely delightful and I adored her bad luck and crazy ideas (I may or may not see a bit of young me in her, haha).The story is really funny and endearing, and I find it perfect for younger readers but I enjoyed it just as much now :)
Sweet bite of un-Muggle world. Bad can be ordinary, not world-ending.
Another wonderful instalment! I liked that this one had a bit more adventure outside the day-to-day running of the school. I can't wait to see what Mildred's next adventure will entail.
Loved it! Wish it could have been a little longer
