School of Little Witches (literal translation)

“School of Little Witches” is a charming and visually rich illustrated album by Brenda Bossato, published by Caprica Ediciones in 2025. The story introduces Ela — a girl who is half-witch and half-vampire — and on her first day at the magical witch school, she finds herself labelled “weird” simply because she looks and feels different. 

As the narrative unfolds, children are invited to walk in Ela’s shoes, exploring the themes of identity, belonging and what it means to truly embrace one’s uniqueness. The bright, expressive illustrations and the playful yet emotionally resonant text work together to deliver a message: “different” is not a disadvantage — it can be a strength. Told with gentle humour and warmth, the book is appropriate for young readers aged roughly 3 years and above. 

With dimensions of approximately 25×25 cm, 40 pages and hardcover binding, it offers a premium reading experience. Perfect for parents, educators, or gift-givers seeking a story that encourages self-confidence and diversity, this book stands out in the children’s illustrated genre. The distinctive magical-school setting (widely beloved in children’s literature) adds an engaging fantasy layer that supports the real-world emotional theme.

Whether used as a bedtime read-aloud or as a classroom discussion prompt, “School of Little Witches” invites young minds to ask: what makes you ‘different’, and could that be the very thing that makes you special? The narrative avoids moralising; instead it opens a space for understanding and celebrating difference, making it a meaningful addition to any child’s library.
