Mary Norton's low fantasy about witchcraft and time travel features the usual terribly proper children off having smashing adventures in between tea times (in other words, it's British) thanks to a witchy neighbour and a magical bed knob. The action trundles along, helped in part by a slew of playful ink drawings (can you spot the black cat?!), and the "happily ever after" ending arrives with a rather poignant twist. Great bedtime reading for the tykes but not quite engaging enough for adults wishing to reconnect with children's literature. ( ) Carey, Charles och Paul skickas en sommar till Bedfordshire för att hälsa på sin gamla faster. I grannhuset bor den prydliga fröken Price, som i all hemlighet håller på att lära sig flyga på ett kvastskaft. En häxa störtar med kvasten En natt störtar hon till marken och vrickar foten. Barnen hittar henne liggande under cederträdet med vrickad fot. Hennes grå kappa och kjol är sönderrivna och skrynkliga och håret hänger i testar. De hjälper henne in i sitt hus och lovar att inte tala om för någon att hon är en häxa, eller att hon fallit av kvasten. Den magiska sängknoppen Som tack får barnen en förtrollad sängknopp. När den är fastskruvad i sängstolpen kan de resa vart de vill, både geografiskt och i tiden. I don't remember reading this when I was young, which is surprising because I loved the Borrower books. Never saw the movie either, which is probably fine. It's my favorite kind of fantasy book, magic happening to ordinary people, especially if it's in England and written in a droll, charming way. There's a trip to a South Seas island that turns out to have cannibals, which will make this problematic for some people. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
