In this installment of the beloved Worst Witch series, Mildred Hubble makes a stand against the odds as she faces new challenges at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. With her clumsy but sincere efforts to do good, Mildred finds herself amid unexpected adventures and misadventures as she tries to save the day. The Worst Witch Saves the Day is the fifth adventure in the much-loved Worst Witch series by Jill Murphy, in which lovable but disaster-prone Mildred Hubble is in trouble once again. She is possibly the worst witch ever to go to Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. As Mildred navigates through her new form teacher's odd behavior and potion mishaps, the pressure builds up, especially with her beloved cat having a meltdown and the class know-it-all trying to be 'helpful'. Despite the chaos, Mildred's determination shines through as she attempts to solve the mystery and pull through another turbulent term at the academy.
