Marvelouz's character seems to have intriguing shades as one of the witch sisters, and the captivating illustrations fabulously synchronize with the theme of this story.

It's great that Marvelouz's sister showed her what she was doing wrong while the former was trying to build her own garden. It will be a great lesson for kids. However, I don't read children's books, so I'll skip this one.

Thanks for the review. I like the creativity in the plot with building on as little a thing as building a garden!! Definitely something I'll have my son read who falls in the recommended age group.

The book is big on children's learning and development. The younger sister was always looking up to the elder sister. when she saw that her elder sister grew harder, she immediately bought seeds for her own harder. Children from ages six to eight will most enjoy the book.

Insightful review! The emphasis on the book's moral lesson and Alicja Siemiatkowska's vibrant illustrations truly seem to bring 'Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch Book Two' to life. It's intriguing how the story conveys the importance of planning and support from loved ones. Your point about initially feeling overwhelmed by details but eventually getting immersed in the story resonates with many readers' experiences. Also, great observation about the book's suitability for children aged 8-12

“Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch” by Karen Fronterhouse is the 2nd book in the series that tells the story of two witch sisters, Marvelouz and Sparkleful. Marvelouz, the older sister, visited Sparkleful one day and noticed she had grown a beautiful garden and immediately decided she wanted one too. She stopped at a seed store and bought random seeds and went home to start her garden. To learn how she started the garden one needs to read the book, which was written for children ages 8 to 12. It is a good read and teaches good lessons like having no plan is a plan for failure. Excellent illustrations and a very good review.

Karen Fronterhouse's Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch, Book Two: Marvelouz Grows a Garden is the second installment of the Marvelouz and Sparkleful series, which follows two young witch sisters. Alicja provided wonderful images for the book. After reading about their father, Jaxter, and Aunt Jaz, as well as the magical setups and great lessons that follow, I am confident that the fun and learning will be loved by kids. Nice review. Congratulations on the BOTD.

From this review, "Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch" by Karen Fronterhouse is an interesting story of two sisters as they try to grow their separate gardens. I will read to know if Marvelouz succeeded in setting up her own garden.

"Mishaps of Marvelouz Witch" by Karen Fronterhouse is a children's book concentrating on the story of two sister witches Marvelouz and Sparkleful. The beautiful illustrations by Alicja Seimiatkowska add a vibrant touch to the story. The story skillfully weaves a tale of two sisters through their journey of growth, mistakes, importance of guidance, and most importantly, sister love. Recommended for children of 8 - 12 years. This is an informative and honest review. Thank you.
