Grace-Ella cover

A young girl discovers she is a witch and learns magic, facing challenges of friendship, bullying, and self-acceptance in Grace-Ella.

In Grace-Ella, a young girl named Grace-Ella is overjoyed when a mysterious black cat named Mr. Whiskins strolls into her life. Having always longed for a pet, her excitement quickly turns to astonishment when Mr. Whiskins reveals a remarkable secret. On the ninth day of the ninth month of her ninth year, he informs her that she is a witch and has the opportunity to learn magic from the Witches' Council. This revelation comes as a shock to her parents, especially her mother, who is concerned about how others will perceive their family.

As Grace-Ella embarks on her magical journey, she faces challenges both in her new lessons and in her everyday life. Struggling academically, she wonders if she can truly become a good witch. Alongside her best friend Fflur, she navigates the trials of bullying from the top student, Amelia. The Witches' Council has strict rules against using magic for revenge, leaving Grace-Ella feeling powerless to defend herself and her friends.

Grace-Ella is a delightful tale filled with humor and adventure, exploring themes of friendship, self-discovery, and the importance of staying true to oneself. As she learns to embrace her magical identity, Grace-Ella's journey becomes one of growth and resilience, setting the stage for more enchanting escapades in this charming series.
