Garlic and the Witch

<p><strong>Bree Paulsen's brave little protagonist Garlic is back in this charmingly illustrated standalone companion to <em>Garlic and the Vampire</em> serving up another tale of friendship magic and self-discovery. Give both books to readers who fell in love with <em>Tidesong </em>or <em>Witch Boy</em>!</strong></p><p>Garlic loves spending time with Witch Agnes Carrot and her new friend the Count who has proven to be a delightful neighbor to the village of vegetable people rather than a scary vampire. But despite Agnes's best attempts to home-brew a vegetarian blood substitute for Count the ingredient she needs most can only be found at the Magic Market far from the valley.</p><p>Before she knows it with a broomstick in hand Garlic is nervously preparing for a journey.</p><p>But Garlic is experiencing another change too--finger by finger she appears to be turning <em>human</em>. Witch Agnes assures her that this is normal for her garden magic but Garlic isn't so sure that she's ready for such a big change. After all changes are scary...and what if she doesn't want to be human after all?</p>
