Reader reviewed by janine

This happens to be one of my favorate books! I think it is sooo cool. The author, Margeret Mahy, did a wonderful job on this book.

This book is about a girl named Laura Chant who is what witches call a sensitive. That means she knows when something bad is going to happen but she doesn't know what, when, or how to stop it. Soon her little brother Jacko gets terribly sick and she asks her neighbors who she believes to be witches.

It's a really good book. Unfortuneately it's out-of-print so you have to get a used copy or borrow it from the library.
