Not Just a Witch: Bukan Sembarang Penyihir

The book feels both whimsical and funny, making magic feel light and fun. I'm curious how the author approached blending these elements to keep young readers engaged without it feeling too silly or too serious.

Her struggles with identity and fitting in felt very real, even in a magical world. I wonder if Ibbotson drew from her own experiences or aimed to help young readers feel less alone in similar feelings.

The detailed magical environment really drew me in, but I’m curious whether the author envisioned a specific place or created this universe entirely from imagination.
