Three little witches stir up a surprise in this cozy Halloween read aloud for fans of Room on the Broom.

A trio of witches needs a place to brew their magic, and the spooky old house down a dark road looks just right. It’s full of hairy scary spiders, musty dusty ghosts, creeeeeeaky floorboards, and shivery curtains. But as the witches work, the house seems to grow warmer and brighter. Just what kind of spell are these little witches casting?

This not-so-spooky story is just right for reading aloud at bedtime, with a surprise ending that celebrates the best type of magic: the kind that’s shared with friends.
