Mini Winnie

Winnie the Witch #2

by Laura Owen, Korky Paul (Illustrator)

Winnie the Witch is ready for anything life throws at her! In 'Winnie's Awful Auntie' Winnie and Wilbur have to deal with an unbearably fussy relative on an unexpected visit; in 'Winnie Gets Cleaning' Winnie offers her janitorial services to the local school with hilarious results; in 'Winnie
and the Ghost in the Post' Winnie and Wilbur find themselves the surprise winners of a television poetry competition and in 'Mini Winnie' there's an unusual solution to a laundry problem.

Four crazily funny stories featuring everyone's favourite witch, her big black cat, Wilbur, and a zany supporting cast of new characters. Korky Paul's exuberant black line illustrations complement the humour, slapstick, and moments of real drama that run through each story. Pure magic!

Enjoyed the nostalgia!

I read the Spanish version of this book and found it entertaining and funny. I look forward to the series.

When I was 6 I would have probably rated this a 4 or 5. But now probably a 3, so I'll give it a 4 star.

Selera humornya penulis nggak nyambung sama saya. Buat saya buku ini nggak terlalu menarik dan nggak lucu. Padahal saya penggemar buku anak dan bisa tertawa terbahak-bahak kalau baca cerita lucu, misalnya karya-karyanya Opa Dahl, Om Pullman, Oma Diana, Oma Astrid, dll. Cuman yang ini meh. Yah, dapet obralan sih. Jadi bersyukur aja. Itung-itung icip-icip.

Oh iya, karakternya juga buat saya agak aneh. Penyihir dewasa yang tingkah laku dan cara berpikirnya kayak bocah. Kalo imut sih nggak papa, ini mah amit. Wkwkwk.

Ah, sudahlah.

buku ini penuh gambar, jadi pengen mewarnai. bahkan tulisan halaman na oun digambarin, dan karakter na pun beda-beda

cuma... kuk buku anak-anak gambar penyihir na dewasa gitu ya? badan montok tapi pemalas abis. ga bisa ngapa-ngapain n selalu mengandalkan tongkat sihir. ga cocok dibaca anak-anak klo tidak ingin menanamkan sifat malas ke mereka.

masa' membaca n nulis aja jagoan kucing na daripada winne. pufh...

masih tetep gak bisa nemuin di mana letak kelucuan dari novel ini, kyknya emank ditujukan untuk pembaca anak-anak nih, jadi udah nggak masuk di logikaku...dua bintang itu untuk ilustrasinya yang cihuyyy banget....
