K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Bella Sinclair.
Lulu Witch can't wait to start school but finds herself tormented by the tricks and showboating of classmate Sandy Witch. Luckily, a case of lizard pox keeps Lulu home long enough to recharge--and gives her something in common with her nemesis. O'Connor's simple narrative brimming with subtle witch-y jokes captures Lulu's feelings, and Sinclair's illustrations add humor without overshadowing the message.
