Just finished rereading one of my most favorite books from childhood, What the Witch Left by Ruth Chew. Who, I posted, left us earlier this year.Katie has a drawer in her room containing items that belonged to a friend of the family whom some considered to be a witch. These objects look quite ordinary: a pair of boots, a robe, a pair of gloves, a mirror and a little tin box. Each one, however, has magical powers. Katie and her friend Louise mess around with each item with rather interesting results. I especially love the details of the Thanksgiving play! I always wanted to find a drawer with such hidden treasures.
