«The Witches» is Roald Dahl's children's fantasy novel, published by Puffin Books in paperback (208 pages, in English).
The book presents a boy and his Norwegian grandmother, an expert on witches, facing an invisible danger: real witches don't ride brooms or wear black clothes, but disguise themselves as ordinary women and hate children. Together they try to uncover and stop their sinister plans, in an adventure with illustrations by Quentin Blake.
The Puffin Books edition was published on 27 June 1985; the work won the 1983 Whitbread Award in the children's novel category.
