Snitchy Witch - Hardcover

by Frank J. Sileo (Author), MacKenzie Haley (Illustrator)

"Oh moon so full, round, and bright
We beg one favor of you tonight
For witches who tattle, witches who snitch,
Tie their tongues, zip their lips
No witch shall squeal or tell on friends.
This spell will be broken when the snitching ends "

Tattling is an all too familiar occurrence among children that can have harmful impacts on friends and relationships. This spellbinding story encourages children to examine the difference between snitching and telling, and the impact of their words on others.

Includes a Note to Parents and Caregivers with more information about snitching versus telling and what adults can do to help.
