Hi, whoever is reading this. I’m Zipporah Chava McConnell, but everyone calls me Zippy.
Things used to be simple—until a few weeks ago. Now…
Why read it?
1 author picked The Witch of Woodland as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Zippy feels out of sync with friends and family, so she retreats to Red’s Farm to sit by the creek and conjure up some magic. I totally connected with this girl since I did the same thing as a kid…the escape to nature, that is, not so much the magic!
Zippy’s story is endearing and full of wonder. Spunky, intelligent, and thoughtful girls always win my heart, especially when big challenges put these attributes to the test. I loved following Zippy as she worked to solve the mysteries of herself and her world. Oh—and Zippy’s voice is…well, bewitching.
From Kimberly's list on middle grade kids and nature mingle.
