It's time for Grayling to be a hero. Her mother, a hedge witch, has been
turned into a tree by evil forces. Tangles and toadstools! Lacking
confidence after years of being called "Feeble Wits" by her mother,
Grayling heads off dubiously into the wilds in search of help, where she
finds a weather witch, an aromatic enchantress, a cheese soothsayer, a
slyly foolish apprentice, and a shape-shifting mouse named Pook. A
fast-paced and funny coming-of-age odyssey from Newbery medalist Karen
Cushman.
