"One witch / on a hill / had an empty pot / to fill." She collects tasty tidbits from two cats, three scarecrows, all the way up to ten werewolves. Then she concocts an "oozing stew" and invites her friends to share it. "Everybody loved it too!" The delightfully eerie ink and watercolor illustrations complement the jaunty Halloween counting rhyme.
