This book has three stories. First story is about funny witch. She lost her broomstick, but she wanted to go to the party. She changed a woman to horse, and ride her, go to the party.
Second and third witch are greedy witch. They use their magia power for their benefits. Villagers uses their brain to slay them. 
I can't imagine there are witches in their village in common, but it may be interesting and fun if there are witches in my town.
