Overview

Cats. Jessica's never liked them. Especially not a skinny, ugly kitten that looks like a worm. Worm. Jessica wishes she'd never brought Worm home with her, because now he's making her do terrible things.

Witches. Jessica has read enough books to know that Worm must be a witch's cat. He's cast a spell on her, but whom can she turn to? After all, no one will believe that Worm has bewitched her...or worse!

Witches. Jessica has read enough books to know that Worm must be a witch's cat. He's cast a spell on her, but whom can she turn to? After all, no one will believe that Worm has bewitched her...or worse!

A lonely twelve-year-old is convinced that the cat she finds is possessed by a witch and is responsible for her own strange behavior.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
A lonely girl, Jessica, finds a blind, almost hairless cat that she calls Worm. Worm seems to have a terrible hold on her, making her do mean things, but Jessica feels she has no one who can help her break free of the cat. PW found this Newbery Honor Book ``acutely perceptive and compelling.'' (10-up)

    Haunting

    Each chapter makes you read more. There was a confusing cliffhanger ending which you have to think about to 'get' the whole story. It was fantastic!

    Classic and Creepy

    I read this book twenty-three years ago for my fifth grade book report! I remember I drew the cover picture of Worm for my book report cover. The book really freaked me out, but I loved it just the same. This is a great read for 10 year olds. Just be sure they read this book during the day and that they don't have any cats!

    Inner or Outer Demons?

    This book is more about an emotionally disturbed child than witches. Jessica desperately needs some attention from her family and friends. Not receiving it she focuses on an unusual cat that she finds and raises. It draws parallels with the Salem Witch Trials.
