JKR's use of folklore is so haphazard and sloppy It's not just that it's "inaccurate", it's that the new shit she made up isn't particularly interesting or good, it's all seat-of-the-pants

I never read the books and need more chapter books for my kid. I might get Worst Witch. PLUS it's apparently better for younger ages. There are HP things I don't want to read to my 5 year old tbh. If we get a lot of parents to read it *first* might be good.

As someone who read TWW long before either made it to live-action, I'm not sure 1 is fair, simply because "Boarding School but magic" isn't a huge leap when UK kids literature is lousy with boarding schools. It's like saying all "teenagers fighting" stories are Battle Royale.

It's not just that there's a boarding school, it's stuff like the protagonist having a snobby aristocratic blonde rival, having one mischievous friend who gets her in trouble and one shy nerdy friend who does her homework, having a tall dark-haired teacher who picks on her, etc
