Little Witch Hazel: A Year in the Forest

Little Witch Hazel's year starts with spring, but its four seasonal tales circle 'round and can be read in any direction. The Bellingham-based Wahl's lush and cheery illustrations are quickly making her a picture-book star, and they are a perfect match for her nurturing, inclusive, weird, and funny tales, which, in this case, might be what you'd get if you transplanted Frog and Toad to a Northwest forest commune.
