A Very Brave Witch

New ed. (2006)
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Harry Bliss. After explaining that witches are actually afraid of humans, a young witch goes in for a closer look. She bumps into some Halloween-goers before befriending a girl costumed as a witch. The story is on the slight side, but the black-ink and watercolor illustrations include playful details (e.g., a "Frank N. Stein" tombstone). This new edition has a compact trim size.
