I read this book before I realized that Ron Sexsmith was also a singer. And he‘s apparently touring with the Barenaked Ladies now. #TBTReads

Though advertised as a children's book, I would classify this as more of a middle grade novel. There's some dark subject matter that just seems better suited to kids who are a little older. The plot of this story follows a fairly predictable line of a witch wandering the countryside, seeking revenge on people who haven't actually wronged her, which leads other people to band against her in order to break all of the spells she's cast.
Yes, it's a fairy tale but it really is meant for a younger reader. In September I'll be hosting a giveaway for Deer Life when it's my turn on the blog tour. I'll post details on the day!
I'm reading this for a blog tour for Dundurn. This is a fairy tale - something I don't read - and like Ron Sexsmith asks, I'll need to suspend belief and just read and enjoy. Let's see how this goes! I'm starting this one since it's short - because I'm at the salon getting the greys washed out of my hair. 💇🏻😁
