Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

For the first time in paperback, a story of seven children who are saved by their mother after an evil witch casts a spell on them. The children--each named for a day of the week--are transformed into specific types of food, and only their mother, with the help of a blackbird, can break the evil spell. Full color.

Synopsis:

In this story, seven sweet children are transformed by an evil witch into specific types of food. The inherent drama of the story, combined with the haunting images the art provides, gives the picture book a timeless quality.--Booklist
