Room on the Broom Paperback – Picture Book, August 25, 2003

Darling story.Great message. Absolutely love it! Love this author.

Kids love books that rhyme, and the story is great, as well as the illustrations. My grandchildren love Halloween, and I’m sure they will love this book!

3 days with this book and my kids have had me read it at least 30 times. My kids LOVE LOVE LOVE this book, and honestly I like reading it myself. Lol. It rhymes so good it's fun to animatedly read it to my kiddos. 7, 4 and 2 year old approved. Buy it! You will not regret it!

What a bewitching delight! I had the absolute pleasure of reading "Room on the Broom" to my niece's class, and I can't begin to express how much everyone adored it. This enchanting children's book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler has quickly become a classroom favorite, and for excellent reasons!From the moment we opened the book, we were whisked away into a whimsical world filled with spells, teamwork, and friendship. The vibrant illustrations by Axel Scheffler are nothing short of enchanting, bringing the characters to life with every turn of the page. The students were captivated, wide-eyed with wonder."Room on the Broom" is not just a story about a witch and her companions; it's a story about sharing, helping others, and the power of friendship. It teaches children valuable lessons about kindness and acceptance in a way that is accessible and engaging. The combination of an engaging narrative, memorable characters, and gorgeous illustrations ensures that this book is a true gem in the world of children's literature.A must-have for any child's bookshelf, and a bewitching addition to the classroom.

My two and six year old grandchildren love this book. It had engaging pictures and an easy to read rhyming text. I highly recommend it.

I bought this for an 8 yo girl I babysit and she loves to read before bed. This book is long so it will probably take her at least 6 minutes to read it. The illustrations are wonderful too. I definitely recommend this as a bedtime story!

My husband has always had a hard time reading out loud, he stumbled on words a lot and was a slow awkward reader. With the arrival of our daughter, he put forth the effort anyways! (Love this man!)The books by this author have been amazing for BOTH him and and her! The flow of the writing is just challenging enough to read, that it gets the gears in an adult mind turning (how many toddler books do that!?) The words, the poetry.... just very well written, with a hint of challenge to it.This is NOT a "Cat went for a walk. Cat took a nap." Type of overly simplified book. But rather a truely artful story with a plot and a moral at the end!Since reading this, and the other authors books, regularly to our daughter, I've noticed a huge improvement in my husband's ability to read aloud! He doesn't get near as tongue tied, or confused anymore. The words flow fairly naturally as he reads them now. He enjoys the stories in these books too! Especially this one. He likes that the witch is nice to everyone and in the end it pays off because they all are able to band together to help her. He explains to our daughter every time he reads it, how important it is to be nice etc.And of course our daughter LOVES this story as well! She's read the book with us probably a hundred times and seen the movie a hundred more. She loves the animals (naturally) especially the frog. And likes to pretend she is the witch and uses her stick horse as her "broom"Really just an all around great book, great writing, great moral, great way to spend family time!

Ordered for October read aloud text for my classroom. Cute story, kids loved it. I was able to created adapted book pages and questions for my students with communication disorders so they could point or circle to answer questions afterward. They enjoyed this book.
