'Ace!' was how the kids described it. 'I must have it!' has been the response of nearly every adult I've shown it to. It's one of those books you know you'll have to replace again and again as it gets worn out by eager readers chasing the delicious details and jokes across the pages. No wonder it won the Children's Book Award. Winnie the witch lives in a black house with all the right black trimmings for a witch of her stature, and her only problem is that Wilbur, her cat, is also of regulation black, The cat is camouflaged too well in the house but Winnie's attempts to change this have disastrous consequences.
