Halloween has just past, so this is a little late, but here goes anyway.
It is Halloween, and the young girl in this story would like to fly like a witch. She sneaks out of the house, mounts her broom, but quickly takes a tumble. However, with determination, great effort, and help from her brother, a black cat, and an owl, she is successful and her dream is fulfilled. Written in a unique sestina poem form by Alison McGhee, with rustic looking linoleum block prints by Taeeun Yo, this will get readers in the mood for Halloween. (well, maybe next year!)
