A mystery egg tests Evelyn’s patience

Evelyn Witch has the pumpkins, potions, and witchy look—but no pet. With only enough money for a plain white egg, she must wait to discover what’s inside. When waiting proves difficult, Evelyn heads to the library in search of spells. The Halloween picture-book premise gives patience a playful, magical frame, built around the gap between wanting a pet and not knowing what the egg will become. The description leaves the hatchling’s identity open, keeping the focus on Evelyn’s anticipation and her effort to make something happen.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for children ages 4–8 who enjoy witches and Halloween settings.
  • For young readers interested in pets, mystery eggs, and magical spells.

Book overview

A witch is anxious to get the perfect pet but learns to have patience when she brings home a mystery egg in this laugh-out-loud picture book from New York Times bestselling author Beth Ferry. Perfect for adorable little witches all year round!

Evelyn Witch has everything a witch needs. Messy hair, bubbling potions, and perfectly carved pumpkins.

But there's something missing... A pet!

Perhaps she'll get a bat or a griffin, or-- Oh. She can only afford the mystery pet: a plain white egg.

She watches and waits for it to hatch.

Sniveling snails, something has to be done! Evelyn rolls up her sleeves and heads to the library, where they keep all the best spells. It's time to get serious.
