| book description |

Enter the spellbinding world of a retirement home for witches in this tale of mischief and magic for children. Grab your broom and get ready for an adventure like no other, because things do go bump in the night - and they live at Anderson House! Join Myrtle, the retired witch, in the first book in The Witches of Anderson House series, as she learns how to find her magic again - all with the help of her witchy friends. Children will love this playful, spooky story, and all of the magical characters that they’ll find in Anderson House. A Spell for Disaster is the first book in The Witches of Anderson House series, created by Jennie Poh, written by Jennie Poh and Dave Lowe. The series features beautiful illustrations by author and illustrator Jennie Poh (2021 Giverny Book Award) and the writing of Dave Lowe, bestselling and award-winning author of 11 children’s books. Some very strange characters live in Anderson House, a retirement home for witches, and one of them is the magnificent Myrtle Stormwhisper. Myrtle is certain of one thing: she has given up magic for good. But when a knock at the door calls for her to pick up her wand again, she doesn't know if she can. It's been so long since Myrtle has cast a spell - what if she’s forgotten how?
