The Gingerbread Witch by Alexandra Overy

5.0

This middle grade chapter book tells a fractured fairy tale including lots of well known characters such as hansel, gretel and little red riding hood. There are several short chapters, about 8 pages each, with no pictures. The book includes lots of magic, as well as creepy spells or potions such as pickled beetle legs and chapter titles like "Witches don't eat children". I can definitely see this book being a hit with the middle grade audience and would recommend this book to parents and teachers of children in the 9-13 age range who enjoy fantasy and magic. Thank you to Netgalley and he publisher for the opportunity to read and review this great book!
