# Room on the Broom: A rhyming story of friendship from the creators of The Gruffalo

The Room on the Broom book series, from the acclaimed team behind The Gruffalo, follows a kind witch and her loyal cat as they take to the skies on a beloved broomstick. A stormy wind scatters the witch’s belongings, leading to chance encounters with a helpful dog, a bird, and a frog. The witch happily offers everyone a seat, turning a solo flight into a crowded, joyful expedition. Told in lively rhyming verse, this children's picture book series celebrates quick thinking, inclusion, and unlikely friendships against a backdrop of magical fantasy.

When a hungry dragon threatens the group, the animals must work together to save the day, showing that even the smallest friends can make a big difference. Julia Donaldson’s bouncy text and Axel Scheffler’s instantly recognizable illustrations create a warm, humorous world that appeals to toddlers and early readers. Blending animal characters with themes of fantasy and magic, the Room on the Broom stories remain a staple in the Stories in Verse category and a favorite for shared reading.
