Published in 1975, I Can Read About Witches was part of Troll Associates' long-running I Can Read About... series, offering simple stories for beginning readers. Some of these books remained in print well into the early 2000s, although this one seems to have slipped into relative obscurity. I added it to my shelves after discovering it on a list of witchy picture-books, which are a pet project of mine, and I am glad to have tracked it down, for that reason. The narrative from author Robyn Supraner, who appears to have contributed many other volumes to the series, reminded me of a folktale, particularly the scenes in which Rowena holds onto the witch, no matter what shape she takes. Although there were no surprises, and although I suspect my fondness for witchy tales was a factor, I did find the story here moderately engaging. That being said, the accompanying artwork from Frank Brugos, done in black, gray and a blueish-green, were not really to my taste. I liked a few of the depictions of the witch (naturally), but overall the style here was a little too cartoonish for me.
