Review of 'The witch in the cherry tree' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

This had a nice fancifulness to it that I wouldn't have expected. I liked the fact that it featured a boy helping his mother cook rather than the more stereotypical plot it could have had.

I enjoyed the fact that the witch seemed real to the boy, but nearly imaginary to the mother, but she humored her son.

I also know what to do with burned cakes now!
