What if you were adopted by witches? There's something very odd going on in Anna Kelly's new home – her guardians, Grizz and Wormella Mint, are witches, and they want Anna to help them with their nasty spells!

When she discovers an evil, old spell book in the cellar – can Anna make the magic work for her?
