In Jail, Ms. Wiz?

(4) 1-3 Ms. Wiz series. Illustrated by Tony Ross. In Jail, the Mary Poppins–like title character changes a little girl into a cat in an attempt to foil some local catnappers. In Control, she saves a branch library scheduled to be closed through the use of magical "fish powder." Black-and-white illustrations that owe a debt to Quentin Blake match the stories' madcap (verging on forced hilarity) mood. Review covers these Ms. Wiz titles: In Control, Ms. Wiz? and In Jail, Ms. Wiz?
