A laugh out loud magical adventure story for young readers, featuring a colourful cast of characters and illustrations throughout. Hetty Honeywort is a little witch who isn't quite like other witches. For a start, she doesn't look much like a witch. Hetty is short, cute, and wears round glasses and dungarees. Oh, and she has a talking chicken as a familiar. She's also not really up to scratch when it comes to magic, especially when she brews up her spells and potions. She always makes a teeny little mistake, and ends up producing rather silly results!. This time, Hetty Honeywort, and her faithful chicken familiar, Penelope Yellowlegs, are off on their holidays to the pretty little seaside town of Scrumpleton-on-Sea. But when they arrive, they find their holiday destination in utter ruins, and the townsfolk are acting weird-to say the least. Not only that, but down by the sea Hetty meets a little mermaid named Molly, who tells her how every single mermaid in her underwater city has mysteriously disappeared without a trace! Never one to let down a friend in need, Hetty sets off on an ocean adventure fraught with danger, to help find the missing mermaids and bring them safely home. A light-hearted story filled with lessons about redemption, friendship, and the power of kindness. Join Hetty on her newest adventure for a little bit of magic and a whole lot of nonsense!
