Illustrated by
Sergio Ruzzier.
A harvest moon hangs in the night sky, tantalizing a young witch. She goes inside to retrieve a broom, but a monster declares he needs it. Neither is scary: the witch smiles sweetly and the monster wears a diaper. Bold shades of limited colors, including purple, gold, apple green, and red, help create a gem for emergent readers in its self-contained simplicity.
