Happy Broomstick Day takes you to Scairay Island where the celebrations for Broomstick Day are well underway. So why is Greta is sitting at home, alone with her cat? Wouldn’t she like to take part in the cat ‘n’ wand race or the three-handled race? And why did she have to be rescued from a frogsmelly cauldron? Being different can be dangerous, especially when you’re a witch!
With a story of over a thousand words, this is longer than your average picture book but together with Marjory Tait’s fabulous and funny illustrations – the cats steal the show! – it shows how things can go very wrong when you’re desperate to fit in. But despite all her problems, Greta is never truly on her own as other witches try to help and rescue her from difficult situations, especially her Auntie Flora who might just have found a way of ensuring Greta finally has a Happy Broomstick Day!
