(4) 1-3 I Can Read Chapter Book series. Illustrated by Jane Manning. Wendy learns that even though she is the youngest witch in her family she has enough magic power to get the better of her older sisters. Low has made slight changes to simplify the text and re-format it to attract young readers. The new illustrations are cheerful and clear, though some may find it harder to warm up to Manning's green, warty witches with all their spikes and sharp lines.
