In the same genre as Harry Potter
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
While this series has not had the runaway success of Harry Potter, the books should be of interest to the same readers. The series started in 1975, considerably ahead of the Harry Potter series. It is about a young student at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. Mildred Hubble is a somewhat inept student, who counterbalances that with some amazing good luck. Her problems are complicated by her cat, Tabby, that is afraid of flying and also afraid of mice. This particular story has the students from her class off on an unexpected vacation at Gloom Castle.

The Worst Witch At Sea is a TERRIFIC book! I read all 4 books in the series and this one is the best by far!On a school vacation Mildred Hubble loses her cat on the beach,while solving an old ocean legend!
Worst Witch.. turns out to be actually ok..

To start off, I am Harry Potter's biggest fan. But I was disappointed when I heard only one book was written per year. To distract myself from reading the same 4 books over and over again, I decided to give this book/series a try, after being recommended by a close friend. Although these books are very short, and only takes me half an hour to read the 100 pages filled with big words, it reminds me of Harry and Hogwarts. The boarding school, which happens to have no name, is similar. If I compared this to Harry, it is a small version, best for younger children. It may not be as descriptive, but both of our young hero/heroines finish with flying colors.. and for that I applaud both Ms. Murphy. and Mr. Rowling.
A good 4th book

Jill Murphy has done a great job of writing the books about Milderd Hubble, the worst witch at her school. Most of the witch are very likeable. The book is very enjoyable.
