The Companion Guide to ‘Caution: Witch in Progress’

Meet Gertie Grimthorpe, a trainee witch who starred in the children’s humorous fantasy novel, ‘Caution: Witch in Progress’. You don’t need to have read the book to enjoy this companion guide, but it might encourage you to!

During Gertie’s studies she discovers that her interests lie in natural cures and remedies. This guide contains what she is learning, written in her own words and aimed at children. It is educational, but great fun. You will get to know Gertie and all her quirky ways. She will introduce her family, mainly her Gran who is quite a character. Gertie loves her, and I think you will too. You will also learn about a moat monster who suffers from stomach ache! Can you see him on the cover?

Discover the cures and remedies that can be found in nature itself. Flowers, weeds, herbs, shrubs and trees all have many healing qualities. Learn how to recognise all the plants from telltale signs, and what they are used for.

This fun but instructive illustrated guide is a must for any child who would like to know more about nature and its many amazing natural medicinal properties.
