But you might not know it.  She didn&#8217;t look like a typical little witch.  Instead of wearing pointy shoes, she wore gum boots.  Instead of wearing a plain black dress, she wore a polka-dotted one.  And instead of wearing a plain black hat, she wore one with a big bow, and the hat was crimson, just like her name.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Crimson Twill is on her way to Broomingdales with her mother, her first trip to the big city.  As she looks for ways to spend her money, she finds some other out-of-place things and creatures and people.  She has some gentle adventures and makes new friends.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a promising introduction to a new series about a little witch who&#8217;s not like all the other witches.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kalliegeorge.com\/\">kalliegeorge.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/candlewick.com\/\">candlewick.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1536230359\/sonderbooksco-20\" target=\"outside\">Buy from Amazon.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This review is only on the blog.<\/p>\n<p>Disclosure: I am an Amazon Affiliate, and will earn a small percentage if you order a book on Amazon after clicking through from my site.<\/p>\n<p>Disclaimer:  I am a professional librarian, but the views expressed are solely my own, and in no way represent the official views of my employer or of any committee or group of which I am part.<\/p>\n<p>What did you think of this book?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crimson Twill Witch in the City by Kallie George illustrated by Birgitta Sif Candlewick Press, 2022. 54 pages.
