Flying High

by Perdita Cargill, Honor Cargill, Katie Saunders (illustrator)

The Winter Solstice Grand Tournament is fast approaching, and Bea Black is ready to shine! Determined to prove herself, she's spending more time practicing magic and less time with her best friend, Ash. He’s not happy about it and suspects something is up. Will she be able to continue to keep her magic a secret from him?

Bea Black is all settled into her new life in Little Spellshire, a town with a magical secret. She’s made a bunch of friends at witch school, and she’s even learned how to levitate a frog (well, almost). And with the Winter Solstice Grand Tournament coming up, she’s ready to shine! Determined to prove herself, Bea has been spending more time practicing magic and less time with her best friend, Ash. He’s not happy about it and suspects something is up. Will she be able to continue to keep her magic a secret from him? With black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Told through Bea's diary entries, the Diary of an Accidental Witch series invites readers to follow Bea on a humorous journey of self-discovery as she learns where she truly belongs.

I used to be the least numerate tax barrister ever to practise at the English bar but now I'm writing at last and it's the best 'job' in the world - not least because I'm writing funny teen books with my 18 year old daughter, Honor Cargill. Hon has just joined Good Reads - go and say hi to her!
