Horrifa’s Magic Makeover: “Witch” Way to the Ball?

by Susan L. Krueger

Horrifa, a headstrong young witch, has her heart set on attending a mortal ball…hosted by a handsome prince at his nearby castle. Although her mother, Dragunda, is appalled that a sorceress would aspire to mortality, Dragunda finally agrees to help her fairytale‐struck daughter transform herself into a blond haired, blue-eyed “beauty,” complete with a “lacy” pink gown. As Horrifa’s Magic Makeover unfolds, Dragunda’s spellbound innovation results in complete pandemonium—dashing Horrifa’s hopes to meet the prince of her dreams. Despite her disappointment, Horrifa finally realizes that being true to herself—scales, warts and all—is more important than her mortal ambitions.
