Overview / 简介: |
Zara, Ziggy and Zoe are three little witches who live in the magic wood. Join them in their magical world, where signposts give directions out loud, calendars sing, cookbooks have minds of their own, and party inviations fly out on wings. Together with their friends Wizard Wink, Baby Dragon, and the Troll children, these funny little witches do their best to stay out of trouble. This charming storybook collection contains eight funny stories filled with magic spells, rhymes, and recipes--all beautifully illustrated by popular British artist Emily Bolam.

This thin tale told in couplets begins as Brown Hen, an expectant mother, has been mysteriously summoned to the farmhouse. She overhears a passing cat remark, "There's going to be a shower!" and opens a large umbrella to protect her precious egg en route even though the skies are sunny and clear. Knowing that the hen is to be feted at a surprise baby shower, the other animals gently tease her: " `Have you thought,' gobbled Turkey, `what the farmer will say when the wind picks you up and sweeps you away?' " Here as elsewhere, LaBrosse (previously teamed with Edwards for The Grumpy Morning) illustrates the scenario with gusto, imagining a sky full of umbrella-toting animals airborne... la Mary Poppins. After being showered with gifts (and achieving motherhood), the hen imparts the lesson to her newly hatched chick: "Sometimes words sound the same, but they mean different things." The artist's watercolor and ink cartoons have an airy energy and mild silliness that make the message go down easily. The set-up, however, seems too protracted for the payoff. Ages 2-5.
