Why it's here

A rhyming, Halloween-friendly story about a witch who keeps making new animal friends — fun year-round, but especially good as a not-too-scary Halloween pick.

Skip it if

It has a bit more plot and rhyme complexity than the simplest board books — skip for the very youngest toddlers still on short, repetitive texts.
