Druscilla's Halloween
Druscilla's Halloween | Sally M. Walker
6 posts | 5 read
Did witches always ride brooms? No! In fact, long, long ago, witches crept about on tiptoe. On Halloween, they would scare children and cast spells . . . but always from the ground. No witch ever thought of flyingno witch until Druscilla. Druscilla was an old witch with the loudest, creakiest knees anyone had ever heard. But she was determined not to let anything spoil her element of surprise. One Halloween, after many failed attempts at sneaking up on unsuspecting villagers, Druscilla made a discovery that changed the course of witch history.

I liked this one better than Halloween Mice! This story is about a creaky old witch who invents broomstick travel to save her loudly popping knees. Cute! 🎃

I found Hyacinth Hippo today and had to share. When I was seven I desperately wanted to be a ballerina for Halloween. I lived in Saskatchewan where it is very cold and snowy in October. My Mum let me go as a ballerina but I had to wear my tutu, tights, and leotard over my snowsuit. I looked just like Hyacinth. Massive costume fail that year! 🩰 Just thought I‘d share!

Ruthiella I‘m sure you were adorable even all bundled up! 😀 4y
Come-read-with-me @Ruthiella I seriously looked like the hippo! It didn‘t help that I pouted the entire evening. It was not a happy Halloween! 😋 4y

ChaoticMissAdventures I love this story! The determination of a child wanting to be something and a parent wanting them to be warm 😍 4y
Come-read-with-me @ChaoticMissAdventures l learned the lesson that warmth conquers all! After that disastrous night, I was only things that I could wear my snowsuit with (e.g,. Bear, witch, ghost, Stay puff marshmallow man!) (edited) 4y

A cute story about a witch that never gives up on her dreams — and the invention of the broom for witches. My little boy loved the sound effects of her knees cracking! 🧹

A fun children‘s picture book, telling the story of Druscilla‘s search for a quieter way to move around on Halloween night. Her cracking knees make too much sound, and she worries she won‘t be able to sneak up and frighten children. Read this one on Libby, thanks to my libraries online catalogue. 🎃🖤

This was super cute! I loved the illustration and I laughed (and sympathized) about Druscill‘s popping, crackling knees, which keep her from sneaking up and scaring people. After many failed attempts to remedy this, Druscilla creates an invention witches are know for. #scarathlon #TeamStoker 6pts
