Hogwarts’ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry isn’t the only place a magically inclined kid can get a solid education. For girls who’d rather not deal with the occasional Whomping Willow, who care not a whit about Quidditch or who simply can’t afford Hogwarts’ tuition, they may apply to Miss Cackle’s Academy for Witches—another magical, oh-so-British...

The Worst Witch instead skips over the hidden world and takes on perhaps a more mythical sense. The cheaper effects are highly charming, and the children give solid performances. This is a great series for kids perhaps not quite old enough for the darker Harry Potter world, but ready to embrace a magical school.
