Synopsis

One day the Little Witch, Dorrie, who had a bad habit of meddling with her mother's magic, decided she would be good all day. But, as luck would have it, that was the very day Aunt Agra chose to come to visit. And though Dorrie tried and tried, she just couldn't please Aunt Agra with anything. "Look at her!" Aunt Agra said. "She hasn't touched her sandwich. She hasn't drunk her milk. And look at her face! She's been into your magic again. She's turning green!" But this time Dorrie hadn't meddled with the Big Witch's magic at all. This time Dorrie really felt sick. It was odd, though -- for the minute the genial old Witch Doctor arrived, she began to feel better. And after taking only two of the chocolate peppermints which he prescribed, Dorrie was almost entirely over her bad case of Auntitis. But most astonishing of all was the way the Witch Doctor cured Aunt Agra!
