Caution: Witch in Progress (previously published as 'Gertie Gets it Right eventually')
Gertie Grimthorpe comes from a long line of witches. Unfortunately, she hasn't really got the hang of it. Being blonde haired, blue eyed and free of warts isn't much of an advantage.
Try as she might, Gertie's spells fall flat. She manages to give her bat-headed umbrella the ability to talk, but then wishes she hadn’t when all he does is complain and insult people. Even finding an owl to be her Familiar doesn't help. Then again, he is extremely shortsighted…
Gertie is sent to The Academy to improve her spell casting skills. She soon has a best friend in the form of Bertha Bobbit, a big girl, with a matching appetite.
Add to that a Moat Monster with a flatulence problem, the weirdest array of witch's Familiars possible, and a warlock determined to ruin Gertie's chances of success, and the story unfolds.
Not to mention the demon...

Very cool. I really like the backwards society of witches you've created. Quite amusing :) Something about it reminds me of Harry Potter, but far goofier.

This is a great children's novel. I already purchased "Gertie Gets it Right" for my niece and she loved it. Well, my niece, her mother, my sister etc. etc. It's made the rounds through my entire family. Keep it up, Lynne. I can't wait to see the next one!
