Zoom Broom

Summary: ZOOM BROOM is the ultimate "Foxy" story for kids!
Review: I've read it over and over and OVER again. I love it just a little more each and every time. My 7 year old son loves ZOOM BROOM almost as much as PIGGIE PIE! The book is thoroughly clever and doesn't lack a thing! The artwork is delicious, the words are precocious and the creativity divine. My son even recites the story from heart, almost word for word. Thank goodness for the fabulous artwork or he would give up reading for story telling. This is a must have Margie Palatini, Howard Fine creation!

Summary: Witch One? This One!
Review: More fast-talking fun from Margie Palatini and our favorite Piggie Pie witch. While parents may recognize the haggling dialogue with a broom salesman as an homage to the Abbot and Costello "Who's On First?" routine, kids will love it simply for it's silliness with language. Howard Fine's in-your-face, exaggerated paintings will catch and keep readers' attentions.

Summary: Fun for both kids and adults!
Review: This book was so fun to read. The story is about a cranky witch whose old broom goes kaput and how she tries to replace it. Adults will get a kick out of references to The Wizard of Oz and smarmy car salesmen. Kids will love the vivid illustrations and the hilarious language. The exchange between the salesman and the witch is a crack-up.

This story was a bit over my 4 year olds head, but kids 5 and up will surely enjoy it.
