No Such Thing as a Witch

One of the things about cleaning at my parents' house is that I always bring a ton of stuff home with me. It's like a free yard sale :) If I show the least bit of interest in something, my mother tells me to take it home. This also applies to whenever Iz shows interest in something...which means A LOT of stuff has come home with us and is still sitting in a box because Iz has too much stuff as it is.

One of the things I brought home recently was a book by Ruth Chew called No Such Thing as a Witch
.
.
It's a children's book that I read several times when I was younger and HAD to bring home to read it again. It's about a couple kids, their silly next door neighbor and her magic fudge.

There are cute little illustrations, done by the author, scattered throughout the book.

I Googled Ruth Chew to see if she had any other books and, although I couldn't find an "official" website of any sort, I did find this one. I was surprised to see the long list of books written by Chew and am now on the "hunt" for them. There is a used book store very close to where I grocery shop and I'll be swinging in soon to see if they have any. No Such Thing as a Witch is a cute, easy read with silly magic and lots of fun...I would love for Iz to be able to enjoy it when she is older and, honestly, I'll be reading it again soon myself :)
