The Not So Wicked, Wicked Witch by Amy Purser Carter

SYNOPSIS:
The Not So Wicked, Wicked Witch is a children's book about a witch that is "labeled" in name only. The story itself reveals an old philosophy "you cannot judge a book by it's cover, but read the contents and then decide". The Witch in this book has the "witch image", however, get to really know her and see who she is inside and out!







MY THOUGHTS:
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. The author does an amazing job of presenting the idea of false pretenses and showing children that what things look like might not actually be. In a judgemental world, a book like this is refreshing. I can't wait to read some more from the author :)
