"Voici un superbe album en anglais (...) Le livre invite les enfants à s'entraîner à compter de 0 à 10, puis à rebours, en suivant une troupe de sorcières farfelues sur un balais géant! Les illustrations sont vraiment géniales et amusantes. J'adore l'univers tendre et décalé de Rosalinde Bonnet 😍. Une mention spéciale pour le duo de fantômes qui prend le thé 👻🍵 (...) Une petite beauté qui fera le bonheur de tous les amoureux de mignonnerie macabre!
"Zip! Zoom! On a Broom! is a really fun Halloween counting book starring some bickering witches packed tightly on a broom."
"There are lots of fun words in here that I obviously don’t say often (chant, incant, rave, moan) and the kids love all the witchy antics. I also love the illustrations – especially the ghosts having tea."

Reviews & Recognition
Red Tricycle: Best New Halloween Books for 2017
"A fantastic rhyming book to celebrate the witchy season." Amber Guetebier
Books to Borrow, Books to Buy:
"Deliciously detailed, fun illustrations are the perfect backdrop to this funny (and just a little bit scary) tale, making "Zip! Zoom! On a Broom" pure delight from start to finish." Kendal Rautzhan
San Diego Family Magazine: Best Halloween Books for Kids
"Bonnet’s illustrations have a chaotic, wobbly quality that suits this story of a late-night haunting gone wrong. Readers will want to pore over the details of her eerie, monster-filled nocturnal scenes."
The Horn Book: From The (Ghoulish) Guide: Horn BOO!
"Humorous ink-and-watercolor illustrations (featuring some familiar creepy creatures) are coupled with bewitching rhymes."
School Library Journal:
"A mildly spooky general purchase for all libraries, this may be just the ticket for detail-driven independent readers, who will enjoy finding the lightly hidden numbers on each page or perhaps telling the story behind each scene."
