| 78 of 79 people found the following review helpful  Absolutely wonderful, despite a publisher's error, By This review is from: Room on the Broom (Hardcover) My 3.5-year-old son loves this book. The illustrations are clever and charming and the simple, repetitive rhymes are perfect for young listeners. It is a joy to read aloud. It is one of my top 10 books to give as a gift. A witch and her cat are flying around and encounter three other animals that would like to know if there is room on the broom for an animal like them. The reply is always an enthusiastic "Yes!"

The book offers a gentle lesson in cooperation as the animals work together to rescue their friend. (It's a dirty job, but somebody had to do it--you'll see what I mean when you read the book.) The rhymes work well for reading aloud and the vividly colored illustrations are full of details that little children will want to look at again and again. For the most part the characters are smiling (except, of course, when the dragon tries to eat the witch). Even the youngest child will not feel threatened by either the characters or the plot. I have a feeling this is going to be the featured story at my Halloween story hours this year. 15 of 16 people found the following review helpful Room on a Broom Excellent Fun!, By This review is from: Room on the Broom (Hardcover) Funny, that this is the first book my husband picks up every night to read to our daughter. He asked me to buy all of her books! He loves her style and the illustrations are excellent. My daughter loves this book and it is not scary at all! Buy this book and her others you will not be disappointed! |
