From School Library Journal Grade 4-6Tessa del Campo, 11, has always had a vivid imagination, so when she finds some sheets containing instructions for spells, she believes that it is her destiny to become a witch. She begins working magic, including a spell that will prevent her little sister from calling her "Tess," and it works. When she wishes that her parents would get a divorce and is unable to reverse what she did, her world starts to crumble. Finally, she begins to see past her own spells and, in the end, everything comes to a happy conclusion. This book features a likable, spunky heroine of Mexican descent who is surrounded by a well-drawn cast of family and friends, adding to the depth of the story. Unfortunately, stilted dialogue mars an otherwise creative and culturally resonant work.Tasha Saecker, Caestecker Public Library, Green Lake, WI Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
