Beatrice is a twelve-year-old witch whose talent for magic-making sometimes falters. In this story, the Witches?

She and her friends must now spend time in the village of Friar?s Lantern, a town surrounded by eerie swamps and located uncomfortably close to a menacing neighboring village called Werewolf Close. On a nighttime excursion they encounter strange blue lights in the marshes. Further bizarre adventures introduce Beatrice and friends to a maddened old man witch named Yorick . . . a weird group of magical cats . . . spooky ghosts who haunt the swamps . . . and the toad-like water leaper, whose generous spirit belies his ugly appearance. Here is exciting escape entertainment a delightful mixture of humor, magic, and spooky adventure.
