Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin (W.i.t.c.h.) are five ordinary friends with an extraordinary secret: they each have the power to control a natural element-air, water, fire, earth, and finally, the mysterious "Heart of Candracar." The girls use their powers to guard against evil and to uncover the truth behind mysterious portals leading to other worlds. Between school, family, and a new interest in boys, these girls had enough to worry about! But now they have the secret to turn into a group of friends with special powers . . . destined to fight the evil Prince Phobos in the magic world of Metamoor. W.i.t.c.h. combines fashion and fantasy, magic and middle school, heroism and humor, friendship and family, teamwork and transformation, in a wholesome mix proven to charm the tween girl market. Introducing a hybrid format that combines four-color comics with a traditional chapter book format.

5.0 out of 5 stars W.i.t.c.h. - The Disappearance, November 1, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Disappearance (W.I.T.C.H. Chapter Books #2) (Paperback)

This is the second book in this series. It was just as good as the first. It is mostly about Irma and Hay Lin. In the start, Hay Lin's grandmother is sick and she dies. Irma also turned a boy into a frog, but her friends think that is funny. The girls keep seeing their friend Elyon, who disappeared earlier. They think she is a ghost because she keeps going through walls. Finally they go to Elyon's house. Elyon leads them to the basement and traps Hay Lin behind a brick wall. She also makes other wallsn attack Will, Irma, Taranee, and Cornelia. The girls transforem again in this book. It is the first time for Cornelia and Taranee.
W.i.t.c.h. is a pretty good series, but sometimes the girls are mean to each other. I don't mean Cornelia and Irma's little fights, in book 1 they were punishing Elyon for flunking her math test. In this book they laughed at Irma when she finally told them she turned the boy into a frog. They are nicer in this one, anyway.
There are also comic inserts in the front and back from the W.i.t.c.h. comic books. They are slightly different from the chapter book part and are available in books with only comics.
I would recomend this book to most people unless you don't think you would like the parts where they laugh at Irma.

This review is from: The Disappearance (W.I.T.C.H. Chapter Books #2) (Paperback)

This book is so sad!!!!!!!11 But it still is pretty good. Yan-Lin (Hay-Lin's grandma) dies!!!! The cliffhanger was pretty good. It makes you think where Elyon went. I think it's good.
