Beschreibung

In "Our Little Turkish Cousin," Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade offers readers an engaging glimpse into the life of a young Turkish boy, providing a rich tapestry of cultural insights and youthful adventures. The narrative is framed with a charming simplicity that exemplifies Wade'Äôs adeptness in writing for children, blending vivid descriptions with relatable experiences. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Turkey, this book serves as both a gentle introduction to the country'Äôs customs and a celebration of cross-cultural understanding, inviting readers to appreciate the similarities and differences that define global childhoods. Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade was a prominent figure in American children's literature, dedicated to promoting cultural awareness and understanding through storytelling. Her own experiences traveling and her deep-rooted passion for education inspired her to write books that would help bridge cultural divides. Wade's work is heavily influenced by her belief in the importance of teaching children about the world beyond their immediate surroundings, making her narratives not just entertaining but also enlightening. I wholeheartedly recommend "Our Little Turkish Cousin" for readers, young and old, who are eager to broaden their horizons and enrich their understanding of global cultures. Wade'Äôs skillful storytelling invites readers to forge connections and gain empathy, making this work a timeless addition to any library.

    This story of two girls trying to banish a witch is “full of wonderful fun, excitement, and humor” (Library Journal).   Old Witch likes nothing better than to fly around on her broomstick, crying “Heh-heh!” and casting abracadabras. But now she has been sent away . . . by two young girls.   Amy and Clarissa have decided that Old Witch is just too mean and wicked. So, drawing a rickety old house upon a barren glass hill, they exile Old Witch there with a warning: She better be good, or else no Halloween! But to give Old Witch some company, they draw her a Little Witch Girl and a Weeny Witch Baby . . .   Old Witch tries to be good, but anyone would get up to no good in a place as lonely as the glass hill. And Amy and Clarissa are about to find that out, when Old Witch magics them into her world of make-believe-made-real, in “a very special book that is certain to give boundless pleasure—at any time of the year” (The Horn Book).   “A classic for Halloween.” —Library Journal
