  A children’s poet and an acclaimed illustrator pair “luscious rhymes and an atmospheric eeriness" in this playful tale of neighborhood battle (Publishers Weekly, starred review). When a scary old tree blooms with the most beautiful pomegranates ever seen, the neighborhood kids’ mouths water with anticipation. But the tree isn’t theirs—and it has a protector! So begins the Pomegranate War, a rollicking contest of wills between the plucky young rascals and their wry, witchy neighbor who has more than a few tricks up her sleeve.  A delightful rhyming tale that culminates in a grand Halloween surprise, The Pomegranate Witch honors classic children's literature and revels in nostalgia for free-to-roam days full of playful invention.
