Description

When the witch next door falls off her broomstick, it's the start of an amazing adventure for Carey, Charles and Paul.

Her spell turns out better than she'd hoped, and gives the children an enchanted bedknob which whisks them off anywhere they want, even back in time.

Mary Norton, award-winning author of THE BORROWERS, weaves her magic in these two stories, THE MAGIC BEDKNOB and BONFIRES AND BROOMSTICKS.

This book is simply a classic brimming with adventure. Meet Carey, Charles and Paul. Three children that embark on the most thrilling adventures. With magic in the air, these adventures are extraordinary and lets just say, out of this world. Would you believe me if I said Miss Price was a witch? Or if I was to tell you that there was a magic bedknob? It's no bother if you don't believe me, because the magic within these pages will surely change your mind. There is something quite special about this book. I know for a fact that my younger self would have loved it.All of the characters are brilliant and written so well. From the bossy quality of Carey, to the childish naivety of Paul, they are all truly memorable characters. I think, most of all I enjoyed the child-like simplicity of adventure, and that excitement of magic. I had a genuine feeling of anticipation as these characters went about their adventures, and even felt distraught as I read the ending.Bedknob and Broomstick has definitely given me a book hangover. I highly recommend it to those who love magic, adventure, and that feeling of childhood nostalgia.
