Chapter 1

Chapter ONE 'Did you pack your fairy wand, Mirabelle?' asked Dad as we all stood by the front door with our suitcases, waiting for Mum. 'Er... I think I forgot,' I said. Dad sighed. He's a fairy and is always trying to get me to use my wand more often, but the truth is that I prefer to use witch magic like Mum! I just feel more

第一章米拉贝尔，你把你的仙女魔杖装好了吗？我们都提着行李箱站在前门等妈妈，爸爸问。 “呃…“我想我忘了，”我说。 爸爸叹了口气。他是个仙女，总是想让我多用魔杖，但事实上，我更喜欢像妈妈一样使用女巫的魔法！我只是感觉

witch most of the time even though I am technically half fairy too, along with my brother, Wilbur. 'There's still time to go and fetch it,' said Dad, glancing at his watch. 'And while you're at it you can tell Mum to

大部分时间我都是女巫，尽管严格来说我和我哥哥威尔伯也是半个仙女。 “还有时间去拿，”爸爸看了看手表说。 “同时你也可以告诉妈妈

hurry up. We don't want to be late for check in! She's probably packing all her lotions and potions.' My mum and dad own their own beauty business concocting organic face creams, perfumes, and lipsticks. Mum can spend all day up in her witch turret experimenting with ingredients and sometimes it's hard to tear her away from work! 'OK,' I said. I ran off up the stairs with my pet dragon, Violet, flapping along behind me. I felt a fizzle of excitement in my tummy. We were packing for holiday— to stay in a treehouse at an all-inclusive witch resort in the mountains. There was going

快点。我们可不想登记迟到！她可能在收拾她所有的乳液和魔药。”我的父母有自己的美容生意，生产有机面霜、香水和口红。 妈妈可以整天在她的女巫塔楼里试验各种食材，有时很难把她从工作中抽出来！“好吧，”我说。 我跑上楼梯，我的宠物龙，维奥莱特，在我身后扑扇着翅膀。 我感到肚子里一阵兴奋。 我们正在收拾行李准备度假——住在山里一个全包的女巫度假村的树屋里。 是这样的

to be a bubbling cauldron hot tub and a waterpark with a twirly witch's hat slide! I couldn't wait! 'Mum!' I called as I ran past her bedroom. 'Dad says you need to hurry!' 'I'll be there in just a moment,' Mum called. I skidded into my bedroom and looked around for my fairy wand. Maybe it would be useful to bring it after all? I could use it to magic up some fairy food to eat while we were away. Fairy food is way nicer than witch food. Eventually I found my wand and pulled it out from the bottom of my toy chest. As I did so, I stared wistfully at my

成为一个沸腾的热水浴缸和一个有旋转女巫帽子滑梯的水上乐园！我等不及了！“妈妈!”我跑过她的卧室时喊道。 “爸爸说你得快点！”“我马上就到，”妈妈叫道。 我滑进卧室，四处寻找我的魔法棒。 也许带着它还是有用的？ 我可以用它变出一些仙人食物在我们离开的时候吃。 仙女的食物比女巫的好吃多了。 最后我找到了我的魔杖，从玩具箱的底部把它拔了出来。 当我这样做的时候，我若有所思地盯着我的

witch's travelling potion kit which was arranged proudly on my bedside table. I had promised Mum and Dad I would leave it at home. 'It always gets you into mischief, Mirabelle!' Mum had said. 'Dad and I would like a break this holiday. You can bring your fairy wand but no witch magic. It's too unpredictable.'

女巫的旅行药水套装被骄傲地放在我的床头柜上。 我答应爸爸妈妈把它留在家里。 “它总是让你惹祸上身，米拉贝尔！”妈妈说。 爸爸和我这个假期想休息一下。 你可以带你的仙女魔杖，但不能带女巫魔法。 这太不可预测了。”
