Written and Illustrated by Flavia Z. Drago
Leila is the youngest witch in her family, and she is the best at everything that she tries to do. One day she finally gets the courage to try for the one prize that she has dreamed of getting, “The Magnificent Witchy Cake-Off,” but she is finding that it is not just a piece-of-cake. Will she win the prize or will she learn that winning is not everything?
This is a fun story about working together and trying new things, even if they are hard. I think that this book would be a fun book for Halloween if you are looking for a cute, non-scary story.Reviewed by Nanette Warr, Librarian, Monroe Elementary School
