K-Gr 4-- All that anyone would ever want to know about the world of wacky witchery is humorously depicted and rhythmically told here. The large-print text winds in and around the full-page (and sometimes double-page) watercolor illustrations, which are a feast for ``Waldo-ized'' eyes. Readers see Old Warty's big, brown, spooky house and the creatures that live with her: Claws the cat, Squawk the Raven, Raucus Rat, Crusher Snake, Squeaky Bat, and two industrious elves, Hocus and Pocus. To prepare herself for a special bewitching night, she buys a wig, a veil of spider's lace to cover her warty face, and the necessary slimy ingredients for her special concoction. Children will delight in poring over the detailed illustration, which are executed in all the expected Halloween hues of deep blue, green, orange, yellow, brown, and black, to find Warty's entourage and see what each is doing. Labels on bottles and cans add to the fun: ``Coffin Syrup,'' ``Baked Beings,'' ``Batburgers,'' etc. The witching hour begins, and the final double-page spread shows a feast of ghoulish merriment. The cartoon characters are large enough for young browsers to join in the fun. This is a book that will never sit on the shelf. --Mary Lou Budd, Milford South Elementary School, OH (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

In verse that is at times humorous, Civardi tells of the preparations of Old Warty the witch for the wildest Halloween party that Cackle Town has ever seen. The cartoonlike illustrations are extremely busy and filled with adult jokes and verbal puns. The book has very little literary or artistic merit. From HORN BOOK 1992, (c) Copyright 2010.
