Gr 4 Up–A rudimentary-while-still-being-extensive overview of witchcraft and spirituality. With the guidance of a kind and gentle narrator, middle schoolers embark on an educational journey focusing on magic and witchcraft and how easy it is to incorporate it into their lives. The magnitude of information is broken down in such a digestible way that readers will forget they are learning. Lovelace explains the difference between pagans, wiccans, and witches; what each tarot card signifies; the types of crystals; elemental properties; seasonal holidays and rituals via the wheel of the year; and moon cycles. They boost readers’ confidence in themselves. The tone throughout is uplifting and motivational. Lovelace breaks down each topic with the care of a loving older sibling. The digital art is in a tight palette of lavender, black, and white.
VERDICT A great choice for witchcraft newbies and veterans as a quick reference, purchase where there’s interest in the subject.
