Reseña del editor:

'Music teacher? What music teacher?'

The sudden arrival of a new music teacher throws St barty's School into confusion. Mysterious smells start coming from the staffroom and creepy-crawlies appear out of nowhere. The new arrival is, of course, Wilhelmina Worlock, a wicked witch with some nasty tricks.

It's up to Mr Majeika to try to outwit her...
