On Halloween night, little Mae Murphy's heart pounds with curiosity and courage. She's heard the tales: whatever you do, don't go near Patty McHatie, the village "witch" at the end of the lane! But as Mae's red hair bounces and her pumpkin bucket swings, she can't help but wonder-are witches really as scary as everyone says? Written in playful, rhyming verse inspired by Dr. Seuss, "Don't Go Near the Witch" is a magical adventure about bravery, friendship, and seeing past spooky stories. Follow Mae as she tiptoes through shadows, faces her fears, and discovers that sometimes the best treats-and the best friends-are found where you least expect them. Perfect for kids ages 3-8, this enchanting tale will become a Halloween favorite for the whole family!
