favorite kids' book, along with the george and martha series This was my favorite Halloween Book!!! I read it hundreds of times.
I am sad I can't find a copy affordable, The story and art work were exceptional!!! Love it!!!! This was one of my favorite books as a little girl!!!! So cute! A definite mustread! Remember reading as a child.
Found and bought an old, beat up copy off of eBay, Memories!!!! Loved this book. I had a copy of this book when I was little, and I loved it, This is the first book I became obsessed with! And all the years later it is one of my most favorite memories, . I love this book. I grew up with this book, and to date, it is still one of my absolute favorites, Ida DeLage, a picturebook author who created the fourteenvolume sitelinkOld Witch series, published fromthrough, spins an enchanting standalone fairytale in thisstory of Weeny Witch.
Small and not particularly fierce, Weeny Witch stands out from her peers,
and provokes the ire of the Queen of the Witches, when she is late for a midnight meeting.
When the witches plot to capture and destroy the Night Fairies, who light the each night, Weeny Witch ends up foiling their plans, helping the fairies to escape.
Taken with them to Fairyland, she discovers that she is no witch, but a stolen fairychild, who is welcomed back by the Fairy Queen, and renamed Silverwing.

Having read all fourteen of DeLage's sitelinkOld Witch picturebooks, as well as her sitelinkABC Halloween Witch, but never having managed to track down Weeny Witch, which I have always understood to be one of the author's best stories, I was quite happy when my local library was able to obtain a copy through interlibrary loan.
Huzzah for librarians! I enjoyed the story here a great deal, probably the best of any witchy tale I have read from DeLage, and I found Kelly Oeschli's accompanying illustrations charming.
The witches are depicted in a truly creepy way, while the fairies are delightfully cute, This is a difficult book to track down, but if one can find a copy, I believe readers who enjoy witchy tales as I do will find it quite entertaining.
I still remember obsessively taking this book out of the library as ayear old when I was first learning to read, It was eras old by that time and it took me till this year to finally track down that it was THIS story that had always imprinted a concept of a kidnapped princess in a ring of witches.
I partially think this story is why I've always loved magical stories,
For that lasting effect, it deservesstars, Totally adorable. Cute story and fun illustrations, After the witches capture the night fairies, Weeny Witch helps them escape and discovers that she too is a night fairy, stolen years before by the witches.
