Teen Witch
Description
Silver RavenWolf wrote this because there was nothing on the shelf aimed at a teenager who wanted to know what being a witch actually involves. It has stayed in print since, and a good many practitioners now in their thirties and forties started here.
It covers the fundamentals in plain language and spends most of its length on ordinary life, since that is where a new practice either takes or does not: school, family, friends, and doing any of this in a house where you may not want to explain yourself.
Who It Is For
A teenage reader, or an adult who wants the basics without the ceremony. RavenWolf writes warmly and with humour, and she is direct about ethics, which matters in a first book.
Try It With
Sticks, Stones, Roots & Bones if the herbal side is the draw. For a first working kit, a white chime candle holder and chime ritual candles. More in books.
