Summary: 2 Stars
The boy in the story doesn't have a name. In the begining the boy's parents parents get into a car accident. So the boy goes to his grandma's house . At his grandma's, his grandma tells him storys of witches and how to identify them. First for witches they spit blue saliva, weird if u ask me. They also don't have any toes, so seams like they wouldn't be able to walk. Their eyes have swirls in pupils. On their hands they have gloves on because they have claws. Witches don't have any hair, so they wear first class wigs. Witches nostrils are big and can smell antyhing. Because of the boys' dads' will, the boy and his grandma have to move to england. His grandma gets pneumania and she needs to take it easy. They check into a boring hotel. At the hotel, the boy got some white mice,and got in trouble with them. The mice have to stay in a cage and he couldn't train them to do tricks any more. So he went searching for where to train them and found the ball room. it was empty and it was reserved later, but that didn't matter. He walked in and went into a hidden place. Once people came in, he realized they were all witches. What will he do now? The boy knew that witches don't like children. He feared that he would be found. Would he be? If they found him what would they do to him? Will they kill him? Read to find out
Some important charactors in this story are The Boy, his Grandma, and the Grand High Witch.The Boy is the main charactor in the story. His Grandma is raising him and helps come up with the plan. The Grand High Witch is the main bad charactor in the story.I would recommend this book ti people who like to read about the dark side of life.
