Children's fiction/picture book. Fulfills Popular Published in 1992 category in the Pioneer Book Challenge
Van Allsburg is my favorite illustrator. He has produced books like The Polar Express and Jumanji and my favorite The Mysteries of Harris Burdick. As an author/illustrator he is one of the best. Someday I would like to purchase prints of some of his illustrations and hang them in my home.
The Widow's Broom is an enchanting tale about a broom that a witch left behind. It seems a simple tale, but has so many lessons woven into the story and the pictures.
Recommend: Yes.
