This is a list of characters in ''The Worst Witch'', a series of children's books written and illustrated by Jill Murphy. == Mildred Hubble == Mildred Hubble is the titular character of ''The Worst Witch'' series. Unlike the other girls at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches, she doesn't come from a regular witch family, but was given a scholarship which greatly impressed Miss Cackle. She is best friends with Maud Moonshine and Enid Nightshade. In ''The Worst Witch'' she saves the whole academy from Miss Cackle's jealous and rebel-ish identical twin sister Agatha Cackle, who was seeking to turn all the teachers and pupils into frogs. In the nick of time, Mildred turns Agatha and the rest of her fiendish coven into snails. In ''The Worst Witch Strikes Again'' Miss Cackle trusts her to look after the new girl, Enid Nightshade, much to the chagrin of both Maud and Miss Hardbroom. In ''A Bad Spell for the Worst Witch'' Mildred is turned into a frog by Ethel Hallow where she discovers a frog-magician Algernon Rowan-Webb and manages to have him turned back into a human. In ''The Worst Witch All at Sea'' she sneakily brings Tabby, her bumbling tabby cat along to Grim Cove with her, instead of her new, ordinary black cat Ebony. In ''The Worst Witch Saves the Day'' she once again saves the academy from the ruthless Agatha Cackle (who sneaked into the school disguised as a new teacher Miss Granite, with a high-pitched, squeaky voice, a huge cloud of orange curls, and an extremely bizarre personality) who tried to turn the whole academy into snails. In ''The Worst Witch to the Rescue'' her project is stolen by the ruthless Ethel Hallow who also gets her banned from art lessons with Miss Mould after Ethel turned her clay pot into five rattlesnakes. In the same book, Mildred also pulls off a daring rescue of rescuing her talking pet tortoise from a tall pine tree after Drusilla Paddock hid him there under Ethel's orders. Despite being clumsy and bumbling, Mildred's intentions are good and she is well-meaning, despite almost getting expelled in ''The Worst Witch Strikes Again''. Although she has trouble training her cat, Tabby- who is grey with black stripes rather than the required black as they 'ran out of black ones' when handing out cats-, Mildred is nevertheless very fond of him, enjoying cuddling up to him in bed, and even risking expulsion to take him with her on holiday after she is forced to give him up in ''The Worst Witch All at Sea''. She also has three bats in her room, which she has named Winky, Blinky and Nod in the series. Mildred is tall and thin and has long, waist-length, black hair which she wears in two messy pigtails, whereas in ''The Worst Witch Saves the Day'', Mildred has what Miss Hardbroom calls "a bad hair day", after borrowing Maud's styling brush and getting her hair tangled in it. Ethel chops off the styling brush but then cuts off all of Mildred's hair to hide it. In a false attempt at kindness, Ethel gave Mildred a hair-growth potion which, unfortunately, makes Mildred's hair grow so long and so fast that it practically engulfs the whole school. In the TV series, Mildred was portrayed by Georgina Sherrington. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of The Worst Witch characters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
