(3) 4-6 When bumbling witch-student Mildred's shooting-star wish--for a dog--comes true, she hides her new pet and secretly trains him on the broomstick. But when archrival Ethel's interference ruins their chances in the inter-school competition, can Mildred and Star step up to save the day? Black-and-white vignette drawings and cheerful girls'-school friendships keep this hapless witch's seventh story on an upbeat note.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
