MORE than 100 young witches and wizards got the call from Hogwarts to attend a Harry Potter Book Day event in St Helens Library last week.

At the event - organised by St Helens Library Service in partnership with the World of Glass Museum - children were treated to a number of spellbinding activities and attractions.
