After reading Garlic & the Vampire, I didn't think any other middle-grade graphic novel would top it and then Bree Paulsen said "wait, let me just... publish Garlic & the Witch."

Our anxious bulb of a friend, Garlic, returns with her fellow cast of vegetable gardenfolk to remind us that change, even when it's scary, can be oh so sweet. Read this one with an autumnal beverage—preferably shared with a friend.
