The Story:
Crimson Twill is a little witch, but you might not know it. She lives in the country and loves polka dots and puppies instead of pointy shoes and black dresses. She even wears a big bow on her hat—which is crimson, just like her name.
Tonight, for the very first time, Crimson is riding on her mother’s broom all the way to New Wart City to go shopping at Broomingdale’s!
The huge department store has everything a witch could itch for. For Crimson, each floor (hats! cats! brooms!) is a new adventure.
But is Broomingdale’s ready for a witch as unique as Crimson?
A rich and playful new world comes to life in the first book of this charming series. |

The Story:
Crimson Twill is a little witch with a big imagination. Crimson is imagining the perfect day because her city friends Mauve, Wesley
and Dusty the Broom are coming to visit her in the country. Crimson has made a list of all of her favorite things to do: ripen the rotten apples, gather broom straw, and croak the frogs. She can’t wait to share them with her friends.
But each activity turns to disaster. Could Crimson have forgotten something very important? Something . . . giant?

The Story:
Crimson Twill is a unique little witch—she likes polka dots, sparkles, and sweet apples instead of rotten ones. And she finally has a real, full-length wand! Now Crimson is off to exciting New Wart City to take wand lessons with her best friends, Mauve and Wesley, and is surprised to discover that their class includes the famous young Broadwart star Miserabella Portentia!
Crimson’s friends are starstruck, and for good reason: Miserabella is wickedly good at wand lessons and always seems to be in the spotlight. Meanwhile, when Crimson tries to do things the way Miserabella does, everything turns out miserable—sunbeams instead of rain, donuts instead of burned bagels, and roses instead of thorns. Disaster!
But when one of Miserabella’s spells gets out of control, it might be time for Crimson to do things her way. Can Crimson learn to spotlight her full magical potential in a way that’s uniquely her own? |
