It all begins when Carey, Charles, and Paul were sent away to stay with their old aunt in a Bedfordshire village. It looks like an uneventful summer is ahead, until the day they find Miss Price sitting in the garden, her grey coat and skirt torn and crumpled, her hair hanging down in wisps. Miss Price, it turns out, is studying to be a witch and takes the children on a series of thrilling adventures via a flying bed. They visit a London police station and a tropical island, and go back in time to the 17th century.This book inspired the Disney film Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
