Hewitch: A Book Full of Good Old Fashioned Chills

Deep within the dank dark, creepy pages of this book, "Hewitch" lurks, casting his clever spell of cagey creepiness and stirring up a beastly stew of grins and giggles galore. For it is Hewitch who causes the strongest of reader to shiver and squeal with delight over the devilish antics upon the pages of this book.
"Hewitch", written by Winky Deveze, is not your average Halloween tale s of ghouls, ghosties and things that go bump in the night.

No, the reader discovers early on that "Hewitch" is different, far different in fact than other books of its like. For though many boys and girls may suspect the ingredients of the stew on his spooky stove are far from healthy (especially where they are concerned), few ever escape his horrible hovel to tell the tale.

For, "Hewitch" personified, is definitely as wily as he is wicked and his ability to coax children into his lair is legendary...at least to those who are savvy to his secrets! The flavorful language of "Hewitch" through his quest to catch little children and cook them in his pot, provides just the right amount of chilling shivery fun for younger children wanting a bit of fright in their Halloween stories.

With illustrations by Andy Neate, a delightfully dark tone is set within the first few pages of the book, leaving the reader eagerly anticipating what will be found when the next page is revealed and the story unfolds. As the reader turns to the final page, the author cleverly does not finish the tale...leaving instead it's ending for the reader to decide for himself.

What actually happened that night to the child who wandered into Hewitch's home is for each reader to decide. It is left open ended and for a reason. Sometimes it is the story left unfinished which gives the best chill.

This story is just right for children who like to create their own tales of terror and for adults who remember what fun spooky endings can be and it can be the perfect book for school story time. With the right audience and some spooky vocal qualities can make this book come alive!

Read it and invite the little ghoul in your life to tell you what happens when the story ends. The possibilities are limitless and the variations many...with only imagination stopping the reader from finishing the tale. And with imagination abound, there is no telling what will happen next with "Hewitch"!
