  1. The witches Devin Roald Dahl

  2. Grandma: she is the grandsons grandma, who helps him kill witches. She is also his caretaker after his mom and dad die in a brutal car crash, witch he survives. She also lived in Norway all by herself until his parents died she had to move to England to take care of him. Is a retired witch tracker and she tells her grandson many things to try and protect him from them , but that will not always work. Narrator: he is a little boy at about the age of eight years old when he is introduced. His parents were killed in a brutal car crash but he came out of it with only a cut on his forehead. After his parents die he is forced to go live with his grandma who knows all about witches which are real , he will soon find out . After being turned into a mouse at the annual witch meeting he will know everything about witches. He also kills all of the witches of England while a mouse, including the Grand high witch ruler of all witches !!! The Grand High Witch: She is the most powerful thing on earth who shoots white hot sparks out of her eyes, and much more than that too. The Grand High Witch is the ruler of all the witches in the world. All that she does all day is kill children and make deadly concoctions to try and kill children . You see all witches hate children, but mostly because of their smell to witches they all just smell like dogs droppings. She also wears a mask to cover her hideous face which looks like it has been rotting away for many years

  3. The Main Settings The grandmas house in Norway : small, quiet, peaceful, and all around witches. Her house in the country side with few neighboring homes . Grandma and the Narrator live here together for the rest of their lives in Norway. The Hotel Magnificent : The place that the main characters (narrator and Grandma ) go for a vacation it has a library, workout room, dinner hall, lobby, ballroom which you can rent out. The Hotel Magnificent is also where the Narrator gets turned into a mouse. Also its where the annual witch meeting is held, with the Grand High Witch. England : the place where the narrator is from. Him and his grandma have to go live there since she is his only living relative. England is also the place where The Hotel Magnificent is , this is where the Grand High Witch is holding the annual witch meeting.

  4. Internal/ External conflicts with main characters An internal conflict in the story is whenever the Grand High Witch turns the Narrator into a mouse by pouring Formula 86 Delayed Action Mouse-Maker which turns him into a mouse instantly. The internal conflict is that he is turned in to a mouse, and how he is dealing with being turned into a mouse. He actually enjoys being a mouse instead of being upset which you would think that most people would be. The Witches: they are definitely an external problem throughout the whole book. First they are changing kids into mice only to be brutally killed. The witches are constantly trying to kill children around the world. Because they claim that they smell of dogs dropping. The narrator will soon have his own conflict with a witch.

  5. Main events at the beginning At the very beginning of my book it talks about how he had always gone to go visit his beloved grandma during the Christmas and other important holidays of the year. ( He being the narrator ) He and his parents were driving to go visit grandma, but when his parents get into a brutal car accident falling off of the road, only he survives with only a small cut on his forehead. Now being that his parents are dead he is forced to go live with his grandma his closed living relative.

  6. Events near the middle of the story The Grandma and the narrator near the middle of the story decide that they want to go back to Norway for spring break. But when grandma gets sick and is not aloud to go that far away from England because she would not be close enough to her doctors . They must settle for The Hotel Magnificent in England which is supposed to be really fancy. When Grandma and the narrator get to The Hotel Magnificent they go and check into their rooms like any normal guests would but when the hotel manager says that the narrators pet mice are not aloud in the hotel he must sneak around to train them. One day he sneaks into the hotels ballroom and starts to train his mice when a lot of ladies walk in with the with the supposedly RSPCC.

  7. How the conflict was solved After the narrator was turned into a mouse by the witches who are holding there annual witch meeting at the hotel him and his grandma are staying at for there yearly vacation. The ladies of the RSPCC are really all witches who hate children. After the narrator is caught the Grand High Witch, she turns him into a mouse. After being turned into a mouse with formula 86 delayed action mouse maker he plans to kill all of the witches of England with it. By putting it in their food at supper in the hotel. After the narrator witch is now a mouse sneaks into the kitchen nearly getting killed by the chef. Not to mention his tail being a little shorter because of a cutting knife being thrown at it . He sneaks the formula 86 delayed action mouse maker into the witches soups by pouring it in from a high shelf. Now that the soup is ready to turn the witches into mice, he sneaks back under the table that his grandma and Bruno Jenkins are at. Bruno is another boy that was turned into a mouse by the Grand High Witch who deceived him.

  8. The Theme of the book. The theme of my book is that, you should not judge people just because of their appearance to you. This is my theme because in my book witches look just like regular ladies except for a few differences for instance all witches are bald, have claws, no toes, large nostrils, blue spit, crazy eyes. But a real witch always disguises herself very very well.

  9. What I liked about my book ( The Witches) was that there was almost always something interesting happening. Whether it be the grandma telling a story about witches. Or a real witch turning something into a mouse The Grand High Witch said this before she roasted her yearly witch. She is roasting her because she said that the witches couldn’t wipe out all of the children of England. “A stupid vitch who answers back Must burn until her bones are black! “ “A foolish vitch vithout a brain Must sizzle in the fiery flame!” “An idiotic vitch like you Must rrroast upon the barbecue!” “A vitch who dares to say I'm wrrrong Vill not be vith us very long!” Then the Grand High Witch shot white hot flaming sparks out of her eyes and the witch who spoke was gone!

  10. Who should read this book. Someone who should my book would be a person that likes action or very entertaining books like mine The Witches.
