Opening a magical Middle Grade series in spellbinding style, Dominique Valente’s Witchspark really does sparkle with witchy wonder, adventure and invention.  

London, 1883, and a mysterious advertisement for Miss Hegotty’s Course for Aspiring Witches appears in newspapers across the Magic Isles. Despite being prohibited, “It was always the same after one of Miss Hegotty’s advertisements appeared — children were the only ones brave enough to apply for something that was banned”.   

At the same time, above a Suffolk village, a “once-grand gothic house” by the name of Huswyvern is deeply worried. One of only three such magical houses that has a life of its own, Huswyvern is set to belong to orphaned 12-year-old Eglantine when she turns eighteen. In order to survive, the house needs a witch, lest it will fall into the hands of the evil Whistlewitch.   

And so, spirited Eglantine turns to Miss Hegotty to help her develop her witchy skills, as does Princess Victoria, for the heir to the throne urgently needs to learn to control her own magic to curtail the unleashing of chaos. Presenting a bubbling cauldron of bravery and friendship, Witchspark is a whirlwind of quirky characters, relatable themes and remarkable magic, marvellously accompanied by Eleonora Asparuhova’s lively illustrations.
