''[[The Witches of Bailiwick]]'' is a [[Low Fantasy]] Young Adult series by Sandra Forrester concerning the adventures of twelve-year-old witch Beatrice Bailey. She and each of her three friends (Teddy, Ollie, and Cyrus) live in the ordinary world, [[The Masquerade|blending in with non-magical people]] with relative success. Although some of their classmates are (rightly) suspicious, in fact Beatrice and her friends are just "Everyday Witches", capable of only mundane magic, as opposed to the prestigious "Classical Witches".
But on Beatrice's twelfth birthday, as she is about to officially receive her classification, she instead is given a quest and learns some family history: many years ago in the [[Magic Land|Witches' Sphere]], her ancestor Bromwich Bailiwick and his four daughters were imprisoned by the evil sorcerer Dally Rumpe, who then cast a [[Curse]] on the land of Bailiwick. Since then each Bailiwick female was traditionally given the task of attempting to free their ancestor, and now it's Beatrice's turn.
Over the course of five books, Beatrice and her three friends journey through the Witches' Sphere, freeing the five realms of Bailiwick one at a time. Typically they spend time preparing for the mission of the book and exploring [[Backstory]] details while staying with magical allies, and also dealing with [[Shapeshifting|Dally Rumpe's]] [[The Mole|treachery]].
