Dorrie and the Blue Witch

By Patricia Coombs

Book Overview

Patricia Coombs mixes more magic to delight her many readers and turns the tables on the Blue Witch, who had changed Cook into a cup of sugar. "Get your cloak this minute and come with me," the Blue Witch said to Dorrie, "or I'll turn you into a turtle!" But Dorrie was a witch's child, and knew something about magic herself. Before Mildred's evil spell began to work Dorrie found some powerful reducing powder that made the Blue Witch shrink...and shrink...and shrink... And at the witches' party Dorrie won First Prize for Witch Catching--a shiny little gold cauldron.

Customer Reviews

a favorite from my childhood

I was definitely not raised a pagan or wiccan, but loved this book series growing up. This is a good book for any child because it's opens up a wonderful world of imaginary characters. It rates right up there with HR Pufnstuf as good things that have stuck in my brain all of these years.

Blue Witch Trouble

When Big Witch has a very important witches meeting. Dorrie and Gink are left home alone! Dorrie still manages to stay sweet and polite to a very rude and impatient guest. When the Blue Witch tries to kidnap Dorrie, Dorrie takes care of herself and Gink in a very clever little witch way. One of the best Dorrie books by Patricia Coombs, I should know I own 6 of them.

not wiccan!

I grew up reading the Dorrie books & loved them. I do not feel that they represent or advocate any sort of wiccan or pagan lifestyle. They are merely fun books in which the main character is an earnest little girl who just HAPPENS to be a witch. Christian, Jewish & Buddhist or parents of any or no religion can feel good about giving this book to their children.
