The Witches

Roald Dahl

£14.99

Roald Dahl’s classic, The Witches has been giving kids the heebie-jeebies in the best possible way for decades. If you’re unfamiliar, the witches in this story aren’t your typical broomstick-riding, cackling types – they’re more into turning children into mice (yikes!). But don’t worry, it’s not all scares. The tale is packed with plenty of humour and Dahl’s signature wit to keep things fun.

  • Perfect for: Brave listeners ready for a fun, slightly spooky adventure where good triumphs evil.

With songs from the Disney Pixar movie, this Tonie takes your kids on a vibrant adventure to the Land of the Dead. It’s full of heart, music, and the message that family bonds are unbreakable. Plus, those colourful skeletons are way too cool to be scary.

Amy’s favourite Tonie is Matilda. From a very young age, she was utterly obsessed with Matilda. She watched and read it so many times that she practically had the whole script memorised. As she grew older, she remained just like Matilda, a bookworm, a trickster, and a dreamer!
