The Worst Witch is a book series by Jill Murphy about the trials and tribulations of a clumsy witch trying to survive her years at Miss Cackle's Academy For Witches. The first book predates Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by 23 years. Harry Potter? Whoever said anything about him? And no, we're not talking about Little Witch Academia, either. At least the kindly old head teacher is on your side. who, to make things worse, is blatantly the favourite of one of your most-hated professors, the sour-faced potions teacher. Your chief rival, meanwhile, is the stuck-up scion of an old magical family. It's hard for you, since you weren't raised by a magical family, but you make two best friends pretty quickly, and then spend the rest of the series getting into adventures with them-usually of the out-of-bounds kind. Suppose you're a kid attending wizard school, with classes in Potions and Broom Flying, in a medieval castle surrounded by dark forests.
