This book will take children to the world of witches, where they will meet nice, industrious witches next door. ?Witch?, the word has always been associated with evil, mean and nasty beings with potions and always looking for trouble. But this book presents witches and their story in a completely different light. The narrator mentions that like everyone else she held the same opinion about witches before she came across these tales which made her change her opinion completely. As Zischka the witch from the book says, ?We do so many things other than making potions and casting spells?. And these ?other things? are what Witch Tales are all about. This book has stories about witches. ?Stories which will tell you something interesting about a fact which you have always known, but not the witchy reasons behind them.? ? Lia, The Ladybird.
