Industry Reviews

Almost seven, Amy and Clarissa, friends, live very much like other little girls in Washington, D. C. They go to school, enjoy swinging and popsicles, and endure with bravery, unpleasant things like polio shots. But unlike other girls, they are conversant with a whole family of witches, whom they conjure up by means of an adroit crayon. The witches, in this case, present problems. There is Wicked Witch, much too fond of devouring mermaids, Little Witch, who is lonely, and Baby Witch who must be looked after. There is also a buzzing spelling bee, and a mermaid, who despite her fondness for Little Witch, cannot manage to climb the glass hill to which the girls have consigned the witches. Illustrated by Edward Ardizzone, this could well become a classic in the little girls' library, read and re-read for its piquant humor, its fluent imagination, and distinctive charm. A happy Halloween for any child about to be introduced to Amy and Clarissa and The Witch Family. Eleanor Estes is the author of Ginger Pye and the Moffat books. (Kirkus Reviews)
