The Witching Hour

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A family of witches desperately tries to entertain a cranky baby in this delightful picture book for fans of Little Witch Hazel and Go the Fk to Sleep.

In the witching hour between dinner and bedtime, anything can happen—laughter, tears, fun screaming, not-fun screaming. Parents, siblings, pets, and neighbours are all familiar with this dreaded time of day.

What happens when that cranky baby is part of a family of witches? Turns out, it's pretty much the same, except sometimes the toys levitate, and the soothing songs sound a little different...

The Witching Hour is a spare, slyly funny, and deeply familiar slice-of-life story featuring a fussy little witch and their increasingly desperate family.
