The Witching Hour

By Jennifer Hariss

Book Overview

A family of witches desperately tries to entertain a cranky baby in this delightful picture book for fans of Little Witch Hazel and The Little Ghost Who Was a Quilt.

In the witching hour between dinner and bedtime, anything can happen: laughter, tears, fun screaming, not-fun screaming . . . parents, siblings, pets and neighbors are all familiar with this dreaded time of day.

What happens when that cranky baby is part of a family of witches?

Turns out, it's pretty much the same, except sometimes the toys levitate and the soothing songs sound a little different . . .

The Witching Hour is a spare, slyly funny and deeply familiar slice-of-life story featuring a fussy little witch and their increasingly desperate family.
