The Switch Witch by Catherine Burns, 2013
Have you heard about the Switch Witch?
She wears a crooked hat
She’s on the hunt for candy
To feed her naughty cat
He likes the brightest lollipops
The green chews and the blue
And if you have some bubblegum
He’ll really want that too!!!
After trick or treating
Pick out some things to keep
And then put in a bucket, things
To swap while you’re asleep!!
Only when you’re snoozing
The Switch Witch will drop in
She’ll take out all the candy
And who knows what she’ll put in?
You might wake up and find a toy
Maybe a book or a bear?
Something for your piggy bank?
Or a funny game to share?
So give the witch your brightest treats
For her cat instead
And in the morning you will find
A SWITCH upon your bed!!!
