Bella Donna is a witchling - a young witch who must keep her powers a secret, and only use magic when she's at home in the enchanted Coven Road.But it's hard to stick to the rules when magic is such fun. There are broomsticks to fly, and with a spell to get her way all the time, Bella's life is going to be fantastic...Isn't it
I gave the audio book of the first four Bella Donna books to my daughter (aged nearly six) to listen to on a road trip. She became so entranced that she was completely antisocial all weekend and remained plugged in to her headphones at every opportunity. She rates it, "The best audio book ever!" She then insisted that everyone else listened to it too. Her sister (nearly nine) rated it as, "Surprisingly good and not just a little kid book. It reminds me of Harry Potter." I had to read it next. All the books in the series are short, insubstantial and not recommended for adult readers but a great read for younger children and even reluctant readers in the older primary age group, as the protagonist is 10-11.
