Scarecrow Finds a Friend by Blume J. Rifken
Illustrated by Carl W. Wenzel
ISBN: 9780979694806
True Friendship!

Tally is a friendly witch who befriends Scarecrow and grants him one wish. After some time, Scarecrow and Tally realize Tally is losing her flying powers, and it is probably due to too many wishes being granted. Scarecrow offers to help her get her flying powers back, and they set out with a plan to make that happen.

Scarecrow Finds a Friend is a delightful story about friendship and helping friends when they have problems. Ms. Rifken shows companionship and depth of character in just a few short pages, and offers children an illustration on how a small gesture can mean so much to those you love. The illustrations by Mr. Wenzel are beautifully drawn and alive with vibrant colors which complement the story perfectly. This is a gorgeous book which I couldn't wait to read to my children, and my kids screamed "again, again" as soon as the last page was read.
