THIS YEAR, A WITCH! written and illustrated by Zoey Abbott

Zoey Abbott uses bright colors and moods to picture the young heroine in THIS YEAR, A WITCH! The unnamed narrator has grown beyond cutesy costumes like mouse and bunny, she’s ready to be a witch. As she prepares you get a sense that the external gathering of accessories are part of the process of owning her new courage which lasts until she encounters her witchy presence in a mirror and flees (only for a brief time) into her father’s loving arms. Find a link to the book in the purchase button below.
