I recently received a book to review. It's called The Switch Witch and it is just in time for Halloween! The Switch Witch is written and illustrated by Charity A. O'Neill-O'Kane. The Switch Witch brings out a delightful new fairy tale for children. Our family is a huge fan of fairy tales, imagination, and myths, which make childhood so much more fun for our kids and us! So when I heard of The Switch Witch I knew this was perfect for us!
The Switch Witch is a beautifully illustrated story that my children loved listening too. My eldest son especially enjoyed the little boy's name, Gavin, because he has a friend in class with the same name!
The Switch Witch is a story about a witch who is friend's with a little boy, Gavin, who enjoys going Trick or Treating. When the witch sees the ill effects of the candy on the boys teeth and his stomach, making him sick when he eats to much, she comes up with a plan.
The Switch Witch tells the little boy to pick out 3 of his favorite pieces of candy and to leave the rest near his lit Jack-o-Lantern when he goes to bed. When he falls asleep the Switch Witch arrives and blows out the lit Jack-o-Lantern and leaves a wonderful book in place of the bag of candy.
In the morning the boy rushes to see what the Switch Witch has left for him and finds the book. He loves it and completely forgets about the candy, besides the book will last for years and he can read it over and over again!
The Switch Witch book is great and we will definitely begin incorporating this family practice starting with this Halloween!

My 4yr old son, Charlie, would benefit from this book. He loves reading! We don't allow candy very often but this time of year is tough. Great idea & option for getting rid of extra candy with little fuss!

My son is on the gluten/casein free diet. He doesn't really get any candy for halloween because it's REALLY HARD to find candy without milk.
I think this would be great to read to him, so that maybe he won't feel so bad.....
