Amazon.com Review

"It was Little Witch's birthday. All the witches were busy. They were busy getting ready for Little Witch's birthday party." They decorate the room with cobwebs, bake a big chocolate frog cake, and top it with (what else?) bat eyes. But Little Witch wants something else this year: she wants friends her own age at her party. Remembering how much fun she had with the three trick-or-treaters who came by at Halloween, Little Witch grabs her bat and her cat and sets off to find them. But where do you find an astronaut, a pirate, and a devil when it's not Halloween? Little Witch and her flying broomstick go to great lengths and all the obvious places, but with no luck. Fortunately, Happy Birthday, Little Witch is a story about birthday wishes that come true, just when you're sure they won't. The illustrations are colorful and full of fun details--especially if you're a fan of chocolate frog cake with bat eyes on top. --Sara Nickerson

4.0 out of 5 stars The poor little witch, October 17, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Happy Birthday, Little Witch (Step into Reading, Step 2) (Paperback)

It's Little Witch's birthday, and she is out in search of her only "friends." They are just some kids that showed up at her screwy house last Halloween while trick or treating. SO, she goes looking for each of them as what he or she was dressed up as last Halloween. SHe finds many people who turn out to not be them, but luckily for her, she ends up meeting with the long lost trick or treaters again. Now, if she only could stop being so dang "GOOD," and make her mother happy---- which would be bad, actually, and likewise.

Anyway, it's a great first reader for kids who like witches.
