Klappentext
Discover the spellbinding history of witches.Be transported through time and across the globe to uncover a rich tapestry, woven from bewitching tales of historical witch trials, magical folklore, and potions, spells, and relics.
Featuring immersive storytelling from expert author Hazel Atkinson and enchanting illustrations from the wickedly talented Camelia Pham, this book covers everything from the origin of the word "witch" to the modern-day beliefs of Wiccans. Meet magical women from history, such as Baba Yaga who lives in a hut standing on chicken legs, learn how to concoct potions from flowers, plants, and maybe even magical creatures, and hear about the different forms of magic across the world, from Ancient Egyptian Heka to South American Brujeria.
This book isn't afraid to go beyond other titles on witchcraft, and delve into the ways women have been unfairly treated throughout history for supposedly practicing magic. Subjects such as witch hunts and witch trials from around the world are covered comprehensively yet sensitively and appropriately for the age group.
With stunning illustrated portraits and scenes, fascinating photos of historical artefacts, and riveting stories and facts, this book will leave readers totally charmed.
