| The Wick Witch and her Imp by Kat Hazelton 2023. In rain and shine they would walk collecting herbs and berries Both of them would have some lunch of nicely ripened cherries. They collected lots of fungi all gathered in a basket. Some of which was deadly and could put you in a casket! Magic water from the stream to purify the blood. A magic stone with a hole that was found hiding in the mud. Pieces of string that they could knot or unravel. Acorn cap and egg shells to aid in long distance travel. Sticks and dry moss collected for the fire. All and all a successful gathering, time to head home and retire. Here are some links to some really interesting articles on Witches and Imps |

Because some folklore stories can be quite scary and disturbing with some adult content I would always advise visiting, reading and viewing links before showing or reading to younger children
