A Belinda Robinson Novel Series, Book 1: Belinda and the Witch's Cat by Margaret Pearce

Her grandmother rides a vacuum cleaner. Her cat talks when he feels like it. And Belinda Robinson's life will never be the same.

Matilda arrives with silky white hair under a pretty straw hat, twinkling green eyes, and a dimple at the corner of her mouth. She smells of flowers. She bakes perfect scones. She builds a tree house overnight in the big gum tree. And she brings a grumpy Blue-point Siamese cat named Senna who wears a narrow leather collar with a gold bell and has very strong opinions about modern transportation.

But Matilda has secrets.

The vacuum cleaner hums at midnight. The television shows things it shouldn't. And Senna? He talks in a deep, velvety voice that is exactly what you would expect from a cat who considers himself royalty.

Belinda has always been the new girl. No cousins, no siblings, no friend who lasted. But Matilda changes everything. Suddenly there is athletic Kate with her blonde curls and reckless bravery, and lonely Amanda with her glossy hair and sharp mind hiding behind a snooty exterior. There is Miss Higgins in her haunted mansion, who went to a very unusual school with Matilda; a school where cats studied catography and feline thermodynamics. And there are midnight flights over moonlit trees.

But when Matilda's temper flares and everything goes terribly wrong, it is up to Belinda and her friends to set things right on their own, armed with a borrowed flying carpet, a crystal ball, and courage they did not know they had.

The first enchanting adventure in the Belinda Robinson series.
