Heidi is a witch who is excited about taking advanced magic classes soon. Heidi has to practice meditation for her advanced magic class, but she can’t concentrate because of many distracting things—like new crushes and new friends! She is also learning about emergency spells, which is crucial as her life is filled with emergencies.
Isabelle, a girl from her class, is friendly towards her and even invites her to her dorm after school. During her second visit to Isabelle’s dorm, Heidi discovers that Isabelle is royalty! Now, Heidi must keep this secret from everyone.
This book is an absolute delight! Its setting is a simple school with a magical twist that will capture your imagination.
The characters, Heidi and Isabelle, are unique and relatable in their own ways. Heidi’s comical demeanor will make you laugh out loud, while Isabelle’s talent in soccer and art (like mine) will impress you. With the book’s magical elements, you’ll also wish you were a witch. Who wouldn’t want to be able to erase their mistakes with magic?
The book is easy to read, and multiple illustrations bring the story to life. This book is perfect if you love a good school setting with a magical twist!
