4 ⭐ I was trying to figure out what reason this book could possibility be one of the 100 most banned books from 1990-2000. I thought maybe the crazy pictures that seem a little “druggy”. But apparently it was banned for spreading the occult and making witches seem harmless, nice, and fun. My main thought was that the illustrator was a friend of Salvador Dali. It doesn‘t bother me that this is about a witch.

LibrarianRyan The book doesn‘t bother me at all, and it shouldn‘t be banned, but seriously, if you have not read this, do. Just for the illustrations. #BBRC #BannedBook 2y
CarolynM OMG!! Ban Mem Fox? She‘s a living treasure, everyone in Australia loves her and her books. What is wrong with people? 2y
LibrarianRyan @CarolynM I know right. She was a staple when I was still a children's librarian. That is why i thought this book being on the list was soooooo odd. 2y

An absolutely classic Halloween story. The illustrations are perfection and Fox offers quirky rhymes that keep you guessing about who will appear at the end of the book. I look forward to Halloween just so I can read this to all of the children I work with!!! 👻🎃👻
