Humbug Witch


Lorna Balian - 1965
    What does a witch do when her spells and potions don't turn out right? She?ll just keep trying, until it's time for bed.

Spook


Jane Little - 1965
    All Spook wants is to live a normal dog life in a normal family, and his prayers are answered when he falls off Grimalda's broom one Halloween and lands in the arms of a little boy named Jamie. Only Jamie's love and kindness stand between Spook and Grimalda's jealous wrath! Black-and-white illustrations.

The Witch-Child


Imogen Chichester - 1965
    Not for her the horrible, damp, stuffy old cave in the middle of the forest. Not for her toadstools, moss-porridge and bats'-leg stew. She has other things in mind - like a proper house with windows and a school to go to. And knowing her determination, she's going to get what she wants by hook or by crook...
