Kirkus Reviews

Magic or no magic, Effie learns there’s power in finding one’s true self and that the path to happiness comes from serving others. The full-color illustrations mix warm earth tones and enticing pastels to create a realistic, comforting world. Clever embellishments, such as floor plans detailing the nooks and crannies of Selimene and Carlota’s house, expand the setting and encourage readers to linger. 

Booklist

A charming middle-grade take on Sabrina the Teenage Witch that only scratches the surface of this new series' enormous potential. 

Horn Book Magazine

Lighthearted, sweet, and entertaining.

Publisher's Weekly

A warm story of found family and healing that stands on its own while setting the stage for further adventures.
