The Book

The Hogwitch of Windy-Night Wold is a labour of love; painstakingly written & illustrated by a father for his daughter. 

It follows a young girl’s journey to an enchanted place of healing – meeting Animal-nurses, Dinosaur-dinner-ladies, fellow travellers, and the Hogwitch; the monstrous yet jovial potion maker of Windy-Night Wold.

To most children it’s a joyful adventure full of colour and cheek – but beneath the surface it’s a story inspired by the real events of Lydia Orsborn’s first stage in chemotherapy. And aims to provide hope, strength and a positive outlook to children and parents enduring likewise treatments.
