Another wonderful children’s book about a little witch is Almost a Witch by Suzanne Osman
Book Summary: Mabel is from a long line of witches and today she is finally old enough to try out to be a witch herself. She can do almost everything a witch should do except for one thing. Will she finally get to wear her very own black, pointy hat? Or will she be the only one in her whole family who isn’t a witch.
The story takes place during a single day as Mabel prepares for and participates in a ritual of maturation from little girl to little witch.
My kids love this one!
