This was a sweet and funny graphic novel about a little witch named Salem. In this first in the series, we meet her and her new animal companion, Whammy, who has been sent by her witch aunt to help her control her powers. She is struggling with the spelling Bee at school, which she thinks could be better if it were a SPELLing (casting spells) bee. The misspelled words cause some trouble, as you can imagine. I loved all the homonyms that went awry. It reminded me a bit of Ewe loves You. These will be a hit with my students, starting in grade 2. (GN CAM)
