Ten Flying Brooms | Ilanit Oliver

1 post | 1 read

A spooky counting story just right for Halloween! Ten flying brooms zoomed swiftly through the night. Their witches were gone--they were nowhere in sight! Ten broomsticks are missing their witches, oh no! Can the brooms find them all in and around a spooky old house before the clock strikes midnight? A rhyming, high-flying counting story featuring all your favorite Halloween creatures!

Ten Flying Brooms | Ilanit Oliver

Despite the cute witchy artwork from illustrator Kyle Poling - I have a weakness for witchy visuals - I did not enjoy this one, finding the text clunky and unappealing. Ilanit Oliver's rhythm here was just off, and her rhymes felt forced. Books in this vein that I do recommend include: Jennifer O'Connell's “Ten Timid Ghosts“, Teri Sloat's “Zip! Zoom! On a Broom“, Carole Gerber's “10 Busy Brooms“, or Gris Grimly's recent “10 Spooky Pumpkins“.
