Dolores

By Geraldine Seymour and Lewis A Coles

Dolores is a beautiful spider who dreams of marrying a handsome prince and becoming a princess. She is captured by Morwenna the witch, who locks her in a cage, and flies on her broomstick to her treehouse in the haunted wood.

Also captured are a toad and newt who Morwenna plans to boil in her cauldron to make a spell to drive away the ghosts from the haunted wood.

Find out how they escape, and whether Dolores finds her prince!
