"Move over Harry Potter! Here comes The Worst Witch." -TV Guide

Before Harry Potter, author Jill Murphy captivated audiences with her best-selling tales of Mildred Hubble, a hopelessly clumsy young witch-in-training. Murphy's wonderful stories are even rumored to have been the inspiration behind the phenomenal Harry Potter creation.

Enter the gloomy halls of Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, a school where chemistry class involves magic potions, final exams center on spells and students ride broomsticks instead of bicycles. No matter how hard she tries, poor Mildred just can't seem to cut it: her incantations backfire and she cannot ride her broom without unleashing a calamity. Still, she never gives up trying, so join Mildred and her friends for plenty of riotous adventure and magical mayhem.

The Battle Of The Broomsticks
Mildred makes a disastrous entrance on her first day at the Academy: she crashes into the dustbins on her broom right in front of the stern headmistress! That mishap helps Mildred discover her new friends - and enemies. It will take some special magic to keep her from being asked to leave before school even starts.

When We Feast At The Midnight Hour
The icky school food leads Mildred and her friends to complain loudly to Miss Cackle, who democratically volunteers to try the same menu for a week. Mildred concocts a better plan: a sneaky nighttime raid on a secret pantry of treats. Unfortunately, they do not count on a legendary ghost intruding on their feast!

A Pig In A Poke
Snooty Ethel Hallow is unable to resist teasing Mildred about everything, including her cat, a striped tabby that hardly looks the part of a real "familiar." Pushed too far, Mildred tries out a spell she has been working on and accidentally turns Ethel into a pig! When Ethel runs off, the race is on to set things right before a local farmer can work on his own mischief.
