Author Bio
Lorraine O'Byrne was born in county Limerick, Ireland. Following two and a half years in Dublin on a City & Guilds course in photography, she went on to teach English in Colombia then spent a further six months in France as part of her European Studies degree. Lorraine loved writing at a very young age and felt that this was where her true passion lay. She underwent an intensive creative writing course before embarking on her first novel "The Wrath of Voodoo" (adult fiction) published in 2004 but since then has turned to writing children's books. Her love of children's stories comes from the active imagination she had as a child, Walt Disney Movies and the animals on her farm.

This was a very cute story. 
8 year old Jenny skips school because she is not ready for her spelling test. Marigold is a 10 year old witch with determination and a bad attitude. When Jenny and Marigold cross paths nothing will ever be the same and they just may learn a lesson or two from each other. 
My 6 year old and I read this book together and we enjoyed it! We are looking forward to the next installment.
