A Tale Inspired By Halloween

With Halloween just around the corner, students gathered in the Middle School Reading Nook at break time to hear Ms. Mermelstein tell a story. They were treated to a creepy story about a woman, a dog and a murderer followed by an improvised version of The Little Witch and the Jack O' Lantern House, a cutting and folding story which follows a little witch on a romp through the woods. When it starts to rain, she quickly realizes that she needs a house but not just any old house. After some clever cutting and folding, the result: a pumpkin dwelling, custom made, especially for her!
