Witch Hazel

Transform dust into magical memories in this moving intergenerational tale that celebrates stories and the time we have together.

• An Indie Next Pick
• "The story’s...attention to memory and loss tenderly shows how the capacity to tell stories is passed on."
  Publishers Weekly
• “Idle’s wispy, fine-lined depictions of memories are conveyed in a white that nearly glows off the terrestrial browns, as do the sparks of magic that fly through the air in graceful, flowing lines. A bewitching examination of the abiding power of memories and story."
  Horn Book
• "The sparkling-white details of the art lend the illustrations a dreamlike quality. Once again, Caldecott Honoree Idle (Flora and the Flamingo, 2013) captivates, infusing realism with fairy tale."
  Booklist
• "A reassuring tale about the power of memory and storytelling to provide comfort for grieving children."
