Welcome to the most magical bakery β€” Witchycakes! Little Blue, a witch-in-training, delivers baked goods all over their seaside town and helps their neighbours with just a touch of magic. Cozy up with this sweet chapter book featuring irresistible full-colour art on every page!

In a magical bakery called Witchycakes, there's a young witch-to-be named Blue. Blue's Mama bakes with magic, and Blue makes the deliveries! They ride their bike all over town with a basket filled with magical scones, tartes, and pies to deliver. There's always something going on in Shelville, and Blue loves to help their neighbours β€” especially if helping them means they get to use a little bit of magic.

Cook up some love with Blue as they use magic and problem-solving to be the best helper they can be in their whimsical little town. And there's a special magical recipe at the end of the book!

Fresh from the oven β€” another Witchycakes book! Don't miss Witchycakes #2: Changing Magic.
