The fact that Jane, Ben and Toby's 'Holiday Child' guest is half Pegler (the witch half) and half Brown (the human half) results in some tricky situations for the children, like the time mum's shopping trolley is transformed first into a plaid pony and then into four toads, all to save trouble! And then there's the matter of the Smirk . . . An amusing, imaginative book for younger juniors, either listeners or readers.
