About this ebook

Lula's Aunties want her to be a witch like them. But Lula prefers to study cookbooks rather than spellbooks (and hates to fly on a broom).

Lula wants to be a famous chef. In desperation, the Aunties insist she try to make one last potion. Lula secretly adds her cooking flair and in true witchy fashion creates a brew that bewitches the entire town, and her Aunties too!

This fun rhyming tale transcends the typical Halloween story to appeal to cooks and "foodies" throughout the year.

    Although her aunts are determined that she should become a wicked witch like them, Lula longs for something else entirely. More interested in cookery than in potion-making, and in pleasing the senses, than in bewitching them, her dream is to open her own restaurant. When her aunts hand her instructions for a potion to turn a child into a mouse, her own extemporizing with the ingredient list leads to a delicious soup instead, with inviting aromas leading the townspeople to her door. You can only fight fate for so long, and soon Lula's Cafe is born...I enjoyed both artwork and story in Lula's Brew, a witchy picture-book that I stumbled on quite by accident, when a used copy came into work. The warm colors and "little witch who doesn't fit in" theme were both very pleasing. I can't say that the rhyming text - "Lula dreamed of being a chef / in her neighborhood's favorite haunt. / She wanted a four-star bistro, / her very own restaurant" - flows particularly well (sometimes I found it rather awkward), but leaving that aside, this was just a sweet little witchy tale. Something for which I have a decided weakness...
