Author Amy Houts will be at the store on October 4 to read her latest children's book. ----------------------------------------------------------------
“Something strange is happening in the witch’s house…”
What do cobwebs, creaky doors, and a surprise twist have in common? They all come alive in the gently spooky, delightfully sweet new picture book, In the Witch’s House.
Meet Kate: She’s sure her new neighbors are witches. The brooms, capes, and mysterious sounds don’t help! But when her fears build to a breaking point, Kate discovers that things aren’t always what they seem, and bravery can lead to brand new
friends.
