Book 1: Witches of Brooklyn-

Could there really be witches in Brooklyn?!
Effie’s aunts are weird. Like, really WEIRD. Really, really, really WEIRD! The secretly-magic kind of weird and that makes Effie wonder . . . does this mean she can do magic, too?

Book 2: Witches of Brooklyn: What the Hex?!-

Could there be even MORE witches in Brooklyn?! 
Effie is EXCITED to meet so many witches, but what is going on with her friends? Suddenly Effie is no longer the newest kid in school, and it seems like her friends are happy to grow their little group, but Effie isn’t so sure. On top of that, learning magic is HARD WORK! 
Effie just wants to have fun being a witch, but her life in Brooklyn is about to get weird(er).

Book 3: Witches of Brooklyn: S'more Magic-

You can take a witch out of Brooklyn . . . and put her in the woods? As if learning magic wasn’t hard enough, now Effie has to go to SUMMER CAMP! The hit middle-grade graphic novel series continues with this new adventure that’s filled to the brim with magic and mayhem!
