About this listen

Brought to you by Puffin.

Presenting a giganticus new reading of Roald Dahl's The Witches, read by the hugely talented comedian Lolly Adefope. This immersive audiobook is bursting with ree-volting sound effects, dynamic sound design, and original music composed by Rusty Bradshaw.


This is a story about REAL WITCHES.

Real witches dress in ordinary clothes, have ordinary jobs and look very much like ordinary people.

But they are far from ORDINARY . . .

The Grand High Witch, leader of all the witches, has a plan to make each and every child disappear.

That is, unless one boy and his grandmother can stop her . . .

Lolly Adefope has done the most incredible job voicing the Grand High Witch that I don't think there's enough superlatives to describe how good it is. It will make your blood run cold. Fantastic story made better by gifted voice talent.

Narrator is outstanding!

so it was just a. 2/3. so it does look quite cool some kind of weird things happening to the body while the fur is growing it kind of looks like that that are a few needles sticking in then the needle feelings stops and then you find out that you've got a tummy that looks quite furry those witches might have not been doing that it's not acceptable and do not forget to spying it on me
