Hilarity and magic on Martha's birthday in the third book in this
young series by Carnegie and Branford Boase long-listed author Joanne
Owen.
It's Martha's birthday and the village has planned a surprise party for
her - but grumpy witch Griselda Gritch ruins the surprise! Not to
worry - Martha's biggest birthday wish comes true when her mum and dad
return from their tropical trip especially for her party. Everyone is
delighted (apart from grumpy Griselda) and excited to have fun with
Martha's present: the Mysterious Mask of Truth, brought back from her
parents' far-flung travels. Fun, that is, until the truth starts causing
everyone quite a lot of embarrassment . . .
