What happens when a little witch gets curious?
Lizzy is a curious little witch. Late one night she spots an old house all lit up when everyone else is asleep, and she can't help herself. She just has to investigate.
"Out for a ride one night, a little witch named Lizzy has a mishap that breaks her broomstick and sends her tumbling through the attic window of a mysterious house. As she cautiously explores downstairs, Lizzy discovers a friendly witch who makes music, another who cooks delicious foods, another who can 'magic you to sleep,' and another who (luckily) can fix anything. Soon Lizzy is soaring on a rocket-powered broomstick." -- Booklist

"Each double-page spread includes a vertical half page that furthers the story by showing changes as characters act and react within the scene. Young children will enjoy pointing out how elements of the picture shift as they flip the half pages back and forth. The story features simple conversations, and the detailed pencil-and-watercolor illustrations are full of intriguing details. Both show a fine sense of child appeal, which finds its ultimate expression in the back endpapers’ captivating cutaway view of the witches’ home." -- Booklist
