I am not, of course, telling you for one second that your teacher actually is a witch. Perhaps she is smiling at the absurdity of such a sugges-tion. She might even- and this will make you jump- she might even be your lovely school-teacher who is reading these words to you at this very moment. She might be the lady with the dazzling smile who offered you a sweet from a white paper bag in the street before lunch. Or she might be the woman with the bright eyes who sat opposite you on the bus this morning. Which lady is the witch? That is a difficult question, but it is one that every child must try to answer.įor all you know, a witch might be living next door to you right now. If a tiger were able to make himself look like a large dog with a waggy tail, you would probably go up and pat him on the head. Even when you know all the secrets (you will hear about those in a minute), you can still never be quite sure whether it is a witch you are gazing at or just a kind lady. What makes her doubly dangerous is the fact that she doesn'tlook dangerous. As far as children are concerned, a REAL WITCH is easily the most dangerous of all the living crea- tures on earth. Bu neither of them is half as dangerous as a REAL WITCH. On the other hand, a ghoul is always a male. But the fact remains that all witches are women. I do not wish to speak badly about women. #Roald dahl the witches pdf download free#No country in the world is completely free from WITCHES. Some countries have more, others have not quite so many. In England, there are probably about one hundred of them altogether. But there are still quite enough to make you nervous. Luckily, there are not a great number of REAL WITCHES in the world today. She can make stones jump about like frogs and she can make tongues of flame go flickering across the surface of the water. Don't forget that she has magic in her fingers and devilry dancing in her blood. People who do those things get caught by the police. A witch, you must understand, does not knock children on the head or stick knives into them or shoot at them with a pistol. Then at last, when everything is ready.phwisst!. Then the witch stalks the wretched child like a hunter stalking a little bird in the forest. Squish them and squiggle them and make them disappear. Anything less than that and she becomes grumpy. She reckons on doing away with one child a week. \"Which child,\" she says to herself all day long, \"exactly which child shall I choose for my next squelching?\" A REAL WITCH gets the same pleasure from squel-ching a child asyou get from eating a plateful of strawberries and thick cream. Even if she is working as a cashier in a supermarket or typing letters for a businessman or driving round in a fancy car (and she could be doing any of these things), her mind will always be plotting and scheming and churning and burning and whiz-zing and phizzing with murderous bloodthirsty thoughts. It is all she thinks about the whole day long. Her passion is to do away with them, one by one. A REAL WITCH spends all her time plotting to get rid of the children in her particular territory. A REAL WITCH hates children with a red-hot sizz-ling hatred that is more sizzling and red-hot than any hatred you could possibly imagine. They live in ordinary houses and they work in ORDINARY JOBS. REAL WITCHES dress in ordinary clothes and look very much like ordinary women.
