The Witching Hour

PRAISE FOR She Stitched the Stars by Jennifer Harris:
"This lively portrayal of the girls and their mother sparkles with curiosity and joy; it's sure to inspire questions in young listeners as it embraces feminism, history, creativity, and science. An engaging inquiry into the lives of everyday girls who are limited by historical circumstance but yearn for more." —Kirkus Reviews

PRAISE FOR When You Were New by Jennifer Harris:
"Each beautiful spread complements the different experiences, right down to a closing wall of photos that telescopes into the future and shows other landmark moments this family will face. This is a wonderful picture book to share in a unit on families…. VERDICT: A quietly joyful look at the passing of time, noted in small moments, that teaches mindfulness as well as the bonds of familial love." —School Library Journal

"The everyday moments, aside from a beach visit and car trip, are low or no cost, offering reminders of how the most special memories can stem from the ordinary. Relaxed reading on the couch, tea parties, and picnics are the treasures here. Soft illustrations in a warm palette, portraying only the parents, child, and dog, give an intimate depiction of this tightknit family and their loving bonds." —Kirkus Reviews
