Recommendations for DD who loved the Spell Sisters series

8 replies

My daughter just devoured all eight books in the Spell Sisters series by Amber Castle. Before that she read the Rescue Princesses series and loved those too. Do you have any recommendations of other things she might like, perhaps in a similar vein? She has a higher reading age than her actual age (she's 7.5) but she is quite innocent and likes gentle books - she's not keen on books with a 'hard' message just yet. She started reading 'First Term and Malory Towers' recently but that hasn't grabbed her. Thanks for any suggestions.

The Worst Witch series
Sophie and the Shadow Woods series
Dick King-Smith Sophie books
101 Dalmatians?
Charlotte's Web?
Black Beauty?

Thanks for these, She has enjoyed all three of the last suggestions, but she really likes to get her teeth into a series. So I'll look up the Sophie ones, and the Worst Witch. Thanks!

definitely the Worst Witch. DD is nearly 7 and she has LOVED the Worst Witch books and the Rescue Princesses. She is currently enjoying the Zoe's Rescue Zoo books (there are 6). Others she has liked are Magic Molly(5 or 6 of those), My Naughty Little Puppy (7 or more), My Super Sister (2 I think so far), Naughtiest Girl in the School (10 books), Magic Faraway Tree series(3 books), Wishing Chair, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Dick King-Smith Lollipop books.

Thanks, nonickname, and cereal - I'll look into these too. In fact, I've just ordered the series of Zoe's Rescue Zoo, for £6.99 on The Book People. Thanks for your help!

The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark
Ottoline series

Ottoline series is a great favourite with DDs as are the Bella Donna books by a Ruth Symes.

They're about a young girl who discovers she is a witchling (a young witch).
