While lots of children have one or two problems, Melanda Notwitch has three: her horrible aunts. They really are the absolute WORST! Luckily, Melanda meets Mitch, a young witch who knows of a magic spell that might make everything better. All they have to do is find one special ingredient. How hard can it be?

Dotty Sutton loved creating the characters and world for this book and said:

"Working on The Notwitches was such a pleasure. For one, Gary's story is outrageously funny. It’s exactly my kind of book: brilliantly imaginative characters and incredibly silly.  Bringing characters to life is the best part of my job, and Gary made it very easy with his hilarious descriptions. Aunt Claggy is one of my favourite characters I have ever drawn!”

Written by Gary Panton,The Notwitches (They’re Not Witches, Honest) is a big-hearted and funny story brimming with loathsome villains, unexpected heroes, extraordinary set pieces and an almost-talking cat.
