When Little Witch goes to camp, she is sure that she will make lots of new friends. But the kids, especially Elizabeth and Chloe, make fun of Little Witch because she is different.

Fun to look at, fun to hold, fun to read, and fun to play, this early childhood edition takes Brain Quest away from the strict question-and-answer format. Instead, subject matter is covered on side one of the card, and the cards are read consecutively, like a series of little books. But when parents and children turn the cards over to side two, they'll find mazes, mix-and-match games, puzzles to solve, circles to draw in, and other activities pertaining to each subject. In CARS & TRUCKS, preschoolers learn that the fire engine is read and has ladders and hoses, that police cars are equipped with sirens and flashing lights, and that an ambulance is like a little hospital on wheels. For ages 1-4

Or are Walter and his father headed for a warlock war?
