Students can consider why the witch continued to make room on her broom when there wasn’t really room. Here is a picture of me acting the witch in our stage show “The Gruffalo, the Witch and the Warthog”.Create another page for the book, on which a new animal finds something else that the witch has dropped. The witch and her cat are happily flying through the sky on a broomstick when the wind picks up and blows away the witch's hat, then her bow, and then her wand! They all fall to the ground, and the witch encounters a big, red, terrifying dragon who wants to eat her. This favourite picture book is a real delight: an ingenious and humorous story with a rhythmical text that is ideal for reading aloud. The gang ultimately saves the witch from a fearsome dragon, and in gratitude she rewards them with a magnificent new broom which has room for everyone.
