Meggie the Witch and other stories are a selection of short children's stories which were originally written for my grandchildren Ayrton and Tilli, who enjoyed them immensely. I decided that if they enjoyed them so much then other children should enjoy them too, either reading them for themselves or having them read to them. Many of the stories are about animals some of which are family pets, Meggie is the comical one about her not being able to use her broomstick so has to have an alternative.
