Bookroo's summary

Evie craves a real scare and discovers the unsettling truth about witches, not from tales but from her own chilling encounter. As she delves deeper, the line between myth and reality blurs, revealing a world darker than any storybook. What secrets do these witches hold, and how will Evie confront the fearsome reality she's unearthed? This tale promises a thrilling journey into the unknown, where fairy-tale darkness comes alive.

From the publisher

We’ve all read about witches, those pointy hat wearin’, broom ridin’, spell castin’, superlative olfactory organ sportin’, child nappin’ creepies. But Evie wants to be scared, and Evie has found out the truth about witches, and she didn’t find it in a book.

John Martz is a student of cartooning and picture books and his knowledge and skill are on full display in Evie and the Truth About Witches, with equal parts MAD Magazine (where Martz is a regular) and Roald Dahl. Martz brings the thrill of camp fire stories to comics-inspired picture books with this book that doesn’t shy away from fairy-tale darkness.
