The eighth and final adventure in the hilarious Worst Witch series.
"I am a hopeless case - everything I do always does go wrong in the end."
Summer term has started at Miss Cackle's Academy, and somehow disaster-prone Mildred Hubble has made it to Year Four without being expelled.
Even though everyone knows her as the Worst Witch, she's secretly set her sights on winning the school's highest honour - that of Head Girl of Miss Cackle's Academy.
Can she stay out of trouble and prove to everyone that even the worst witch can turn her fortunes around?
Not if her arch-enemy Ethel Hallow has anything to do with it...
Jill Murphy's books sell in their hundreds of thousands. She is perhaps best known for her classic Worst Witch stories which she started writing when she was fifteen but she is also a hugely successful picture book author and illustrator. Peace at Last was her first picture book for Macmillan and was commended for the Kate Greenaway Medal. She went on to win the Smarties Prize for The Last Noo-Noo. She is also the author of the classic picture book Whatever Next! Jill lives in Cornwall with her son.
