Hermione Prickleburr... is a witch who hurtles across the desert in a billy-cart drawn by a team of thirteen specially trained goannas. No 'sooky cat' for her, but a big black crow as a companion. Bindii and Mike have to use guile and the special magic of Mike's grandfather to save Bindii's pet Thorny Devil lizard from her dreadful clutches. (Stella Lees and Pam Macintyre The Oxford Companion to Australian Children's Literature (1993): 388).
