Long ago, witches tiptoed when they went "spooking and spelling." When old witch Druscilla's creaky knees rob her of her silent, stealthlike approach, she concocts an innovative spell that changes a common broomstick into a perfect flying machine. Appropriately quirky and shadowy illustrations add spooky and humorous flair to the Halloween tale.
