A Tangle of Brungles by Shobha Viswanath - ADVISABLE

A Tangle of Brungles by Shobha Viswanath.  PICTURE BOOK. Karadi Tales Company, 2018. $16.

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

KID APPEAL: AVERAGE

When a witch decides to marry the Brungle, she and the rest of her coven put together a witch's brew to summon him This is a terrific book about collective nouns! The witches need all sorts of ingredients and everyone wants to watch - A parliament of owls, a mess of iguanas, a bevy of swans, a banner of knights etc. 

The illustrations are comical and chaotic (much like a witches brew I suppose) This is a super fun read at Halloween and what a great way to teach collective nouns.
