Description
Friendship and empathy charm as a little witch learns to fly on a not-so-perfect broom.
While practicing for her flying test, Little Witch sometimes forgets her broom in places she shouldn't. By the time she finds her broom in the woods by Ramshackle Rat's house, the broom has been chewed and bent. When Little Witch tries to fly home, the broom is sinking, spinning, and bumping along. Unable to fix her broom, Little Witch must find a way to pass her test despite her setbacks. With help from an unlikely friend, Little Witch may find a way to soar again.
In Broom for Two, celebrated author of While You Sleep, Jennifer Maruno, enchants readers with her expressive and rhythmic text. Award-winning illustrator Scot Ritchie brings humor, charm, and a touch of magic to little witch’s adventure. Illustrations showcase a whimsical duo, while utilizing a rich seasonal color palette, bringing this magical world to life as a little witch zooms across the sky.

Featured Reviews
Cute! I want to note to everyone reading this review that this book is best fit for younger little ones (2-5 yrs). This is because there isn't a lot of description and the story is very simple, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Younger kids like to read books about witches, too! On top of that, the colorful and whimsical illustrations will definitely draw kids in and the silly tone at the beginning of the book will make them giggle out loud. Additionally, the way Little Witch helps another character in the book will subtly teach kids about compassion, which is awesome! Lastly, the reason why I subtracted a star from my rating for this book was because there were numerous typos that took me out of the story. One typo is understandable, but this issue persisted throughout the story. After "rose and sunk" there was always a comma, when there should have probably been a period. Every time it made me think that there was going to be more, but the story shifted into the next bit. Fixing this would help the story flow a lot better.
Overall, though, this book was adorable, whimsical, and kids will love reading it!
