yesterday (wednesday 2/8/2023) my mum bought me 11 second-hand tiara club books. i’m over the moon about it. i’ve been wanting to own them since over a decade now. i don’t know if the ones with the lovely illustrations by Sarah Gibb are even still in print but i can’t find a set of every single tiara club book anywhere online. oh well, scavenging for individual old copies like this will have to suffice :) i can’t wait till i have them all in my bookshelf forever.

My daughter wishes there really was a school for teaching you how to be a princess. In this installment of the Tiara Club, Katie is the narrator and tells what happens when the princesses go for a visit to Witch Windlespin who teaches them how to make a potion on how to get rid of nervousness. But the potion can also take on how the person mixing it feels. This is a sweet book about being honest and that your bad or hurtful thoughts can cause hurts outside your thoughts too. Because we all know that what we're feeling inside can soon manifest itself on how we behave. So we should all try to have positive thoughts even toward people who make us mad.
