Winnie and Wilbur

Wrote a review for

What a delightful story! My son (and I) loved it so much!


Winnie, the witch, had black house and everything inside it black too. Her cat, Wilbur, also had black color. She often couldn't see Wilbur because the cat blended in with the house and its furniture. Then Winnie changed Wilbur's color and that were the story began.


The story was simple yet meaningful. My son concluded the story himself that sometimes you need to adapt and change for someone you love. On the note that the changes are in better ways. I also told him, based on the story, changes always have two sides, could be good and could be bad too. He might don't 100% understand what I said yet, but I believe my son is compassion enough to comprehend it when he gets older.


The words used in this book were simple enough. My 5 years old son could read 75% by himself and I am so proud of him.


The illustrations were also good. I personally loved it so much because it reminded me of "old time" illustration. Of course it is, since this Winnie The Witch series originally released in 1980s.


Thank you to Valerie Thomas, Histria Books, Histria Kids, and NetGalley for the ARC.
