The perfect Halloween read-aloud!(goodreads summary)
When the little Witch realizes that her broom is missing, she looks everywhere to find it! As she searches around with her cat Gloom, she tries various other things to replace it such as; a scooter, a bike, a digger and a plane. But each one is not the same as her beloved broom.
This is a wonderful addition to the Halloween reading season. The rhyming text flows easily making this a fun read aloud to a large or small group. Kids will find humor in the illustrations as she tries the numerous modes of transportation. But if they look closely, they will spot her broom hiding in various places throughout the pages. It has a surprise ending when the witch interacts with readers asking them if they know where her broom is. Stories that include reader participation will keep them giggling and engaged and this book does just that. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 4-6.~
