I'm starting off with this page from one of my all-time favorite books "Chicken Soup With Rice" from the Nutshell Library by the fabulous Maurice Sendak. I am obsessed with this book - I have been for YEARS. "Whoopy once, whoopy twice, whoopy chicken soup with rice!" "Little Witch" is another book I've had for years; it's a cute little story: I took this poor lady's picture and doctored it up- now she's a witch, too (sorry lady - I'm sure you were actually quite nice!): Another witch - Madam Mim from Disney's "The Sword In The Stone", lovely in pink and purple: The page above is from this book - another favorite and one from my Disney Little Golden Book collection: Poor Donald Duck- doesn't he have enough troubles? In this book, she shows up next door to him!: OK - this is really Mother Goose - but I'm sorry - the hat, the broom - fair game!: And this is just some "old woman" but: hat + broom = witch,in my book! "I told you once, I told you twice, all seasons of the year are nice for eating chicken soup with rice!" That may be true - but fall and winter are best - don't you agree?
