To all of us who’ve ever tried to twitch our noses and make things happen And for Kami and Sam, because I can’t dedicate the books we’re writing together to you I am a witch. A real house-haunting, broom-riding, cauldron-stirring witch. —Bewitched Witch. From the Anglo-Saxon word wicce, German wissen, “to know,” and wikken, “to divine.” The witches were at first called “wise women,” until the day when the Church took it unto herself to follow the law of Moses, which put every “witch” or enchantress to death. —H.

There were some other little witches who swooned over the fairy tale of the pitiful frog who could be transformed back into a much-reformed prince by the right witch and then put a ring on it. Or the story of the witch who saved the father and his three stepdaughters by banishing bad fairies from their
