Bit more of a recycled plot in this one, with Miss Cackle's evil twin sister, Agatha, making an appearance again. Still, it's a fun little romp with a hair disaster (in more ways than one) and poor Tabby still struggling with flying.
Despite being quite pedistrian, it's still a fun entet in the series. On to the next one!

And we are at book 5, only 2 more books to go before I am completely up-to-date with this series! *cheers*
We got a new teacher, Miss Granite seems kind, but at times is also totally mean and unfriendly. And who in their right mind leaves a whole class of students alone???? But we soon find out why!
I loved the hair part. First getting it all off (poor Mildred), only to have to use a growth potion going out of hair um hand. :) Why do these girls still trust Ethel with things? They should know by this time (3 years now) that she is up to no good and won't be nice. Poor Tabby, totally traumatized by the huge and super fast growing hair.
Of course the book ends, like all the others, with Mildred saving the day/academy again.
But I have to say this one was way more fun than the previous one, so yeah for that!
Btw, I loved the cover for this book. :)

A very cute continuation! Another fun adventure for the Worst Witch, Mildred. It’s hard to talk about the plots of such short stories without giving much away, but it was very fun!

The best thing to have done would have been for Mildred to change herself back once she was safely out ofbedroom, but she found it difficult to focus her ant brain on the intricacies of the reversal spell, especially as she had stumbled across a large cake crumb just outside the door and immediately felt an overwhelming desire to start dragging it back underneath the door towards the airing cupboard.Spoiler
Miss Granite's
After being severely displeased with the previous installment, I'm happy to announce that I enjoyed this one! Mildred, Maud and Enid are in Third Form now and have new teacher Miss Granite and from the beginning you can see that there is something fishy about her, which makes for a nice mystery element! (I was kind of reminded of the Alastor Moody plotline from HP and the Goblet of Fire, but... things are a bit different.) There is also a plotline that really reminded me of [b:Anne of Green Gables|1263152|Anne of Green Gables|L.M. Montgomery|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1348247270l/1263152._SY75_.jpg|3464264] which I obviously loved. Ethel Hallow is still described in a way that's completely ridiculous, but Miss Hardbroom seems to gain some humanity in this one and I'm so glad for it, because... as you know if you read my previous reviews, I... might be a little too invested into Miss Hardbroom?
Also! Also, in this installment Miss Hardbroom goes to play evening chess with Miss Pentangle and returns at two in the morning! As you can tell I have my own theories about this meeting...

pining lesbians...Clearly, I had a good time with this, looking toward the next book! I'm now getting to the completely unknown territory, because I didn't read the last three books in the series before.
So delightful to be reading this series about a lovable, well meaning but hilariously accident prone witch at boarding school.
