With her potions and spells, Doctor Imelda Witch helps all the forest creatures to feel better - be it a harvest mouse with hayfever or a centipede with a broken leg. On the evening of the witch and wizards' ball, Doctor Witch gets all dressed up in her best black dress and her pointiest hat. But her party finery gets muddy when she stops to help a baby owl caught in a tree. How can she go to the ball now? The "I Am Reading" series provides just the right balance of challenge and support for newly independent readers. Large, easy-to-read type, satisfying stories by top writers and cheerful full-colour pictures help children make the transition from picture books to chapter books. Each book includes a bookmark flap, tips for beginner readers and either short, numbered chapters or two short stories.
