Fiction

The sparky Jessica, whom we met in Jessica Haggerthwaite: Witch Dispatcher, is still confident she will become a famous scientist. This time though she has decided she will become a TV star first. But some serious competition arrives in the form of glamorous Xandra and her stuck-up daughter Agapanthus. Not only do they intend to outshine Jessica in the media world, but their so-called "magical" abilities rival those of Jessica's mother, a practising witch. Jessica is thwarted at every turn until her friend Robbie and brother Midge lend a helping hand. A hilarious and imaginative story, enlivened by Tim Archbold's cartoon-style illustrations, that will appeal to readers 8 years and older.
