About This Book
Winnie the witch has a black house. The interior of the house is also black the
rooms, walls, furniture, utensils, etc. Her cat is Wilbur, black with bright
green eyes. When Wilbur closes his eyes to doze off, he disappears into the
background of Winnie's home, and she accidentally tramples him again and again.
This practical witch, who loves her feline friend, changes his color to green.
But when he's outside in the grass, the problem recurs. She then waves her wand
over him five times and turns him into a five-color cat, but Wilbur is mortified
and climbs up a tree to hide. Winnie brings him back to his original state and
instead uses colorization on the big black house. In true Halloween spirit,
Paul's pictures of the witch's house are spooky and most imaginative. Her
palette of gray, black and white in the opening pages reveals all the eerie
details of Wilbur and Winnie's existence, and the technicolor transformation is
a startling surprise. Thomas's story is simply stated, with a cauldron-full of
original humor. --Publishers Weekly
