So after making all my friends read this fic they threw out the following witch suggestions:

Pippi Longstocking
Ronia the Robber's Daughter
Jane Drew
Jane Banks
Claudia from the Babysitter's Club
Sweet Valley Twins
Sally (Encyclopedia Brown)
Anastasia Krupnik
Sally and Lucy from Peanuts
Madeleine
Susie Durkins
Eloise

. . . sorry for the epic suggestion box entry, WE ALL LOVED THIS.

:D Looks like we shall have a Part Two on our hands! I can't believe I forgot some of these epic girls. Thank you so much for the suggestions. <3

yesssss excellent

Two more: Fern from Charlotte's Web, and any of the March girls!

sorry sorry I'll stop now for real :D

Awww Fern!

My first instinct was Jo, but I think Amy works better on reflection.

Browsing the Newbery Medal page on wikipedia has brought back some memories, so I'm sure we'll have enough for part two.

Just dropping a line to say this is quite interesting; hope I can contribute some suggestions, but children's novel is an alien territory for me. Still am eagerly awaiting the continuation of your drool-inducing Utena epic :)

Thanks for dropping by! Don't worry, I'm still hard at work with Idylls of a Rose Prince.
