Description

From the World's No. 1 Storyteller, The Witches is a children's classic that has captured young reader's imaginations for generations.

This is not a fairy tale. This is about real witches.

Grandmamma loves to tell about witches. Real witches are the most dangerous of all living creatures on earth. There's nothing they hate so much as children, and they work all kinds of terrifying spells to get rid of them. Her grandson listens closely to Grandmamma's stories—but nothing can prepare him for the day he comes face-to-face with The Grand High Witch herself!

    I sense a book that may have been drastically edited and maybe embellished for a juvenile audience. Who knows what the first draft of this book looked like? Maybe something 10 times scary and controversial! You can tell there were some elements specifically inserted for the benefit of a juvenile audience. What a pity! I would have loved to read what Dahl REALLY wanted to say.
