''Liewe Heksie'' (Afrikaans for "Beloved Little Witch") is an Afrikaans work of fiction created by children's book author Verna Vels in 1961. It centres on Liewe Heksie, a rather incompetent and forgetful witch, who lives with her friends the elves in ''Blommeland'' and whose foolishness and lack of magic skills leads to many funny situations. The ''Liewe Heksie'' series started off as radio stories, followed by books and stories on vinyl record. ''Liewe Heksie'' made a television debut in 1978 as an Afrikaans language children's television programme, directed by well-known children's program writer and director Louise Smit. A second series of ''Liewe Heksie'' followed in 1981, for a total of 52 television programs. ==Storyline==
Livinia,〔http://vintagemedia.co.za/television/liewe-heksie〕 or ‘Liewe Heksie’ as she is referred to by her friends, is the kind-hearted yet not very bright witch of Blommeland (“Flower Land”). Heksie cannot really do magic, but has a magic horse named Griet whom she can conjure up by saying his name. But, she can never remember it and only ever summons him by accident when she calls out “Oh Griet!” in panic. Her best friends are Blommie Kabouter (“kabouter” meaning elf or sprite), her kitten Mattewis and the stylish city cat Karel Kat, who rides a fancy car and owns a helicopter. She also loves playing with Klein Kwaaitjie Kabouter (“little angry elf”), the baby brother of the bad-tempered Kwaaitjie Kabouter. The ruler of Blommeland is the strict but kind Koning Rosekrans (“King Rose Wreath”), who is very fond of Heksie but gets frustrated with her inability to do magic and her repeatedly getting his name wrong. The source of Blommeland’s floral beauty is the strictly guarded Silwerroos (“Silver Rose”) which is coveted by the Gifappeltjies (“little poisoned apples”) and their evil witch the Geelheks (“yellow witch”). They frequently send two ‘kabouters’, Kerrie (“curry”) and Borrie (“turmeric”), to steal the rose to brighten up dry, barren Gifappeltjieland. Should they succeed, all the flowers in Blommeland would die and their land would become barren like Gifappeltjieland. However, on each of these occasions, Liewe Heksie manages to save the day, albeit accidentally, and is hailed a heroine. Sometimes the Feekoningin ("Fairy Queen") intervenes, and lets Heksie believe that she has done some real magic.
