What is Mrs Jollipop about?
Mrs Jolly used to be a witch, but now she has a respectable job as a lollipop lady. The children call her Mrs Jollipop, although her magical past is not quite behind her. When she tries to help them cross the road, her enchanted lollipop refuses to behave like an ordinary one, and Mrs Jollipop’s feet sometimes leave the ground. Can she keep her powers under control and still do her important job? A funny, magical story about a most unusual crossing patrol.
