Kamena, a witch, lived
in the land of pumpkins and witches in the children's story A Witchful Friend:
An Amazing Tail of a Pumpkin by Patricia A.E.Hampton. She was different from
the other witches and was bright and full of laughter. Though she had special
powers like other witches, Kamena never used them to cast any evil spells on
the land. The other witches thought she was a waste of talent because she was
not using her powers. One day, while walking through the land, she spotted a
pumpkin which looked different from the other pumpkins. She was curious to know
why the pumpkin was sitting alone, away from the other pumpkins. Yuri, as he
introduced himself, cried and cried and cried and she tried everything in her
power to calm him down. Though she tried to push him over to the other
pumpkins, Yuri rejected her offer. They started to converse and they both
realized that they had a lot in common. None of the pumpkins believed Kamena
was a good witch but one day something unusual happened. Will the pumpkins
accept Yuri and believe Kamena is not a bad witch?
The story is exciting and children will be curious to learn the ending. The
illustrations are adorable and colorful and they make the story appealing to
young readers. It is a story of kindness, acceptance, and friendship, and the
author has some interesting characters in it. Both Yuri and Kamena are lovable
in their uniqueness and the author portrays them well.It is a good storybook
for storytelling sessions in classrooms and homes, and teaches children to
accept, appreciate, and celebrate their differences and uniqueness. The evil
witches, bullying pumpkins, and the land they dwell in all add to the enchanting
elements of the plot.
