Bookroo's summary

Itch the witch is in a tizzy, racing against the clock to tidy her home before her guests arrive for tea. As she zips and zooms, her efforts unravel into a chaotic mess. With her house twitchy and glitchy, Itch must confront the whirlwind of her own making. Can she find calm amidst the chaos and discover what truly matters when her friends arrive? Dive into a whimsical tale where friendship and a little magic might just be the perfect remedy for an itchy, fidgety day.

From the publisher

Visual hijinks abound as a nervous witch gets swept away with trying to tidy up before company comes–only to discover that being with friends is what really matters. Tick, tock! Three cups. Tick, tock! Three saucers.With nine minutes left, everything was ready.Or was it? Itch the witch is having company over for tea. As the clock counts down to tea o’clock, Itch’s mind is in a tizzy: is her house too twitchy? Is her home too itchy? Zipping and zooming, dusting and brooming, Itch sweeps and bewitches the mess away (just in the nick of time). But as soon as her two guests walk in, Itch’s housekeeping comes unraveled. How will Itch tame such an itchy, glitchy, fidgety mess? Rising star Priscilla Tey uses computer-aided design (and evokes familiar computer glitches) to present a delightfully meta, intricately illustrated story that dazzles as it amuses.
