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.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Amy is an award-winning author of 100+ picture books written in both prose and rhyme.​ She also writes cookbooks, articles, poetry, and creates board games.
Her books range from science-based nonfiction, ​Think Like a Scientist (Pearson), to faith-based narrative nonfiction, God's Earth is Something to Fight For (Sunbeam/Bushel & Peck Books), to licensed character workbooks, Dora the Explorer Safety (Learning Horizons), to over 60 retellings of fairy tales, folk tales, and fables, to cookbooks and cooperative games.
Her work as a children’s librarian and preschool teacher helped inform her writing. She was inspired to write for children when she was a graduate assistant in the early childhood department at Northwest Missouri State University.
