1-3Heidi Heckelbeck series.
Illustrated by
Priscilla Burris.
Wanting to prove to Mom that she can babysit her brother, Heidi, with classmates Laurel and Bruce, hosts a hands-on museum for little kids at the school fair; to create an activity, Heidi turns to her trusty Book of Spells for inspiration. The plot glosses over Heidi's witchy background too much for series newcomers, but likable characters and frequent black-and-white spot art compensate for that.
