Barbara's Note: This is one of the best fantasies available, and should be read remembering that it is fantasy. It provides opportunities to find scriptures dealing with witchcraft, fortune-telling and pantheism. Although many adults tell me it was their childhood favorite, there are those who strongly oppose it, making it one of our five most controversial books. You may wish to preview this one. (Grades 7, 8, 9)
