The Witch Family Audiobook

" I'm sure I'd love this if I'd read it as a kid, but coming to it for the first time as an adult, it didn't really grab me. "

" Fun. Not too scary for young ones. "

" This book vastly affected life as a child and gave me a better understanding of who my mother really was. "

" I read this at least twice: 1962 with Judy Davidson (vwall, vmail), 1995. "

" I loved this book when I was a child, and was pleased to see it work its magic on my own daughter as well. Don't care for the cover drawing on this edition, but the illustrations by Ardizzzone are charming. "

" A childhood favorite. Wonderful, whimsical story punctuated by the delicate art work of Edward Ardizzone. "

" A real favorite which charmingly captures the mentality of young kids; I used to read it every Halloween to the family -- even my husband would come in to hear it. "

" Eleanor Estes had a way of capturing what an 8-year-old girl would sound like if she were telling the story and letting her imagination run away with her. So much fun. "

" This was one of my favorite books growing up...I did a book report on it in 4th grade and I think I read it about three times :) How many books have witches AND mermaids in them? Great for reading aloud, too. "

" I have extremely fond memories of this book - it was one of the first that I checked out from the public library (and I did so frequently). Very imaginative tale about witches, spelling bees, and mermaids! "

" This was cute, but rather quirky. It's the tale of an imaginary witch world invented by two young girls. It was first published in 1960 and the language and style definitely feel a bit dated. However, the kids (8 & 6) enjoyed it. "
