This is the second book that continues the story from her first book. I felt this second one had a much longer story with larger words maybe for a bit older child than the first one. I still loved the artwork and the atmosphere and concept. I loved how the cats followed her in her search for a cure to the allergies to the cats. I felt some of this story could have been in the first book to give it more depth and length. However it lost a little of the fun quirkiness it started off with. I still thought it was so very cute and loved the witch breathing in the fumes of her potion. I liked it overall but, just wish the two books were either combined or divided eqaully with clear beginnings and endings in each with the fun still involved.

'Cat's Fur' & 'Lizard Brew' are two books that go together. Honestly the first just ended abruptly. The continuation was written differently- way too long and more lengthy that cats fur. It really bothered me that the books weren't uniform with each other. I really think that this story would have been better suited as one book.

I feel like I missing a piece of the story?! I don’t know. It’s a bit odd and there is too much text on each pages for this type of book and sometimes the way the text is positioned is hard to figure out what to read (like the columns?)
I personally prefer less text and more specific for these kind of kids books. I’m sure the author would be good to write a novel tho:
I wouldn’t recommend it for young readers probably more like 7-10yrs and I’m not sure over that they will be interested tho
Overall it’s a nice book for Halloween, pictures are okay a bit fade for me but I think it’s fine for a witch story.

Utterly unremarkable book about a witch whose cats get hexed to make her allergic to them. So-so script and artwork – I just don't consider this very memorable at all. What's more, this is the sequel to the announcement of the curse, which is available elsewhere – now, the two books are certainly two halves of a pair, but when one has about fifty words and the other five hundred, why can't two become one??!!

The witch was cursed, and now she's allergic to her cats! She sneezes and sniffles, her eyes are puffy, her temper short. Something has to be done.
The witch tinkers and tankers, collecting herbs, brewing potions.

This book reminded me of my grandmother. She had this book about a witch with the same first name as she had, and the animals living around her cottage messed around with magic so the grass was blue, the sky green, and trees... don't know any more.
But she had to fix things since this was not how it's supposed to be.
In addition, the drawing style is kind of similiar to the one found in this book. So now I am quite nostalgic after reading this one.

In the last time, when I've read a picture book, the illustrations were mostly cute while in Lizard Brew, they tend to be more on the realistic side of things, which is not bad. As I said, it feels nostalgic.

Though this is not the first in a series but rather the third book, I had no difficulty getting into it. It can be read as a standalone. I like that something every-day like allergies are the topic of this book, since I feel that it's not that often spoken about while a lot of children deal with this.

I recieved a copy of this book in exchange for a honest review.

Lizard Brew by Bonnie Stanard is a great tale for Halloween and the illustrations are a great addition to the story.

I really liked this book, and it's perfect to read during the Halloween season. The reason for the four star was because I was confused at times at what was going on but other than that I loved everything else. I will definitely be picking up the next book in the series. Thank you net galley and the publisher for sending me a copy for my honest review.

Hard to understand this book without first reading it's predecessor. I don't really like the dark magic that this picture book portrays. I wouldn't want to read this to small children. I do like that there is a solution and a definite ending to this book.
