The Worst Witch is a series of children’s novels written and illustrated by Jill Murphy. The title refers to the main character, Mildred Hubble, who is the worst student at Miss Cackle’s Academy for Witches. It is also the name of the first book in the series.
Mildred is well meaning, but does things without thinking. The benevolent headmistress, Miss Cackle, is generally understanding, whereas Mildred’s form teacher, the virago Miss Hardbroom thinks she just isn’t trying hard enough.
Other characters in the books include Mildred’s friends, Maud Moonshine and Enid Nightshade. Maud is a rotund and more sensible girl than Mildred, but usually finds herself caught up in her friend’s problems; Enid (introduced in the second book) is a practical joker who is more likely to get them all into trouble than Mildred. The three of them have a strong rivalry with their highborn, snobbish, vindictive classmate, Ethel Hallow.
Murphy (who began writing before she was 18) has said that the Worst Witch books were based on her own school, with Singing becoming Chanting, Chemistry becoming Potions and so on.
