The Little House That Needed a Witch - Hardcover

by Sophie Pluim (Author), Polly Lawson (Translator)

A charming original fairy tale about a determined house (with legs!) and its search for a gentle witch who will love it.

Deep in the forest sat a little house. The old witch who'd lived there had gone for good. The little house felt empty and alone.

As the seasons changed grass grew tall around it and mushrooms began to sprout from its roof. The little house decided it needed a new witch. So, creaking and squeaking, it stood up! And went in search of a witch in need of a house.

An enchanting story celebrating change, tenacity and being open to new beginnings, from the illustrator of The Runaway Pancake.
