I can’t actually believe how good this book is and Egmont have done a great job by making these a good size for small hands, a slim hardback that will happily sit side by side with popular illustrated early chapter books- it’s just a crying shame so few people know about them!
The illustrations are so whimsical and spooky with gorgeous swirly and scratchy details and clever playful alternating of colour block, white space and detailed backgrounds. The writing is thoughtfully created with use of close repetition of possibly new, longer or harder words such as frowned or banister to give children the opportunity to build their confidence.
The resort features several restaurants serving a variety of cuisines, including traditional Turkish dishes, international classics, and even a dedicated kids' buffet. Guests can indulge in delicious meals and savor the flavors of world-class chefs. For those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation, the resort offers a state-of-the-art spa and wellness center.
Dorrie and the vlue witch

When Dorrie is left home alone by the Big Witch, she decides to have a tea party with Gink. There is a knock on the door. Expecting Cook to arrive any minute, Dorrie opens the door. Instead of Cook, she finds the bad Blue Witch. Dorrie scours Cook’s magic cabinet, uses its contents to capture the Blue Witch and receives a gold cauldron for her efforts.
I was a big fan of Dorrie the Little Witch when I was a kid. Now, decades later, I didn't even remember why I loved the books so much. So when a Goodreads friend reminded me about this series, I went in search of some of the books.
I'm not sure if Dorrie and the Blue Witch was one I read as a child or not (I have a feeling I'm going to be drawing a blank on most of them), but I can see why I enjoyed them. The story here is cute and empowering. Dorrie has to figure out how to deal with a potentially nasty witch who wants to steal her away. So she thinks and comes up with a rather clever solution to the problem. (Her mother eventually completes the solution, but that wouldn't have been possible without Dorrie's help in the first place.) This book is over fifty years old, but it doesn't really feel like it. In this case, anyway, the story doesn't really have any elements that make it seem dated.
As a voracious young reader, I probably loved the fact that there's a lot of text. Technically, I guess these are picture books, but there are some pages that are most or all text. So they're definitely not for the earliest readers (unless someone reads the books to them), but kids who are getting more proficient at reading and who'd like something a little more challenging than a picture book could potentially gobble these up.
The pictures are charming. They're black and white with a touch of colour (blue, in this case. of course; I suspect other titles may have their own specific colours to punch up the monochromatic colour scheme).
Overall, I'm glad I took this trip down memory lane. Dorrie is just as fun as I remember.

What do you like about it? I lived across the street from the library as a child. I can remember being FASCINATED by this book enough to read it while I was there and then check it out again and again and again and again. I think the thing that pulled me in was Dorrie. She just looked cute and a little lost and I loved her cat. Also loved the fact that she wore mismatched socks. And that she was a little magic herself.

Reviews for "Dive into crystal-clear waters at TUI Magic Life Mazmavi's renowned snorkeling spots"
1. John - 2 stars - While the location of Tui Magic Life Mazmavi was beautiful, my overall experience was quite underwhelming. The staff seemed disinterested and lacked enthusiasm in providing good customer service. The rooms were not well-maintained, with some even having broken amenities. The food options were limited and repetitive, and the quality was mediocre at best. I had high hopes for this resort, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations.
2. Sarah - 3 stars - I was disappointed with my stay at Tui Magic Life Mazmavi. The resort had a nice beach and pool area, but the rooms were outdated and in need of renovation. The food was average, and the variety was not as extensive as I had hoped. The entertainment options were also limited, and the activities offered were not very engaging. Overall, I expected more from a resort with "Magic Life" in its name, and I would not choose to stay here again in the future.
3. Alex - 2 stars - Tui Magic Life Mazmavi was a major letdown for me. The resort lacked a sense of cleanliness and hygiene.
