Pip and the Wood Witch Curse

(3) 4-6 Spindlewood Tales series. Fleeing his orphanage, ten-year-old Pip stows away on a wagon traveling to Hangman's Hollow, a wretched place where children are hunted both inside and outside the city walls. Mould delights in description of all sorts; he presents Pip's adventures with verbal wit and charming, spidery drawings. The balance struck among fearsome, fantastic, and funny elements creates a pleasant trifle of a tale.
