Sisters, secrets and spellbinding adventure . . . the perfect magical world to cosy up with this Christmas!
The Widdershins sisters, Betty, Fliss and Charlie are trapped, prevented from leaving their home on Crowstone by an ancient family curse. When they inherit three magical objects with the power to change their fate, adventure beckons. But are they being led into even greater danger?
Join the Widdershins sisters and break the family curse in the first Pinch of Magic Adventure, shortlisted for the 2020 British Book Awards, selected as Waterstones Children's Book of the Month and Barnes and Noble Young Readers pick of the month, and winner of the Dutch Bronze PEN award.

Thank to Netgalley and Simon and Schuster Audio UK for a free audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
Michelle Harrison's "A Pinch of Magic" sure is a whirlwind of a book.
This middle-grade adventure has everything; strong heroines, magical objects, a generational curse, the deep bond of sisterly love, and a pinch of magic.
Harrison does a wonderful job of building up the enchanting world of Crowstone, that it felt like a real place in our world.
Nicky Diss is a brilliant narrator and really helped me envision the adventure of the Widershins Sisters.
