We’re one week out from Halloween and here is a cute story about a mean, nasty witch who develops a bothersome itch. Gromelda just cannot figure out what is causing her to itch. She tries all sorts of magic to stop the itching but it only makes it worse. Finally, a wise wizard suggests that perhaps she is allergic to being mean. Maybe she could try being a good witch instead?
This is a pretty standard storybook app. You’ll be turning the pages by yourself and there’s no interaction on animation on the pages. Some of the illustrations are split onto two screens which means you have to swipe and pan to get the entire scene. It can be a little bit awkward at times. The Witch Has an Itch does have a lovely message about changing our tune, even when it’s a hard thing to do. The story’s author, Donna Guthrie, also narrates the app and she has a fantastic witch voice. She made the story great fun.
