Sunday The Sea Witch
A whimsical children's book that weaves modern witchcraft practices into a story about change and transition.
Sunday loves adventures, animals, and the beach where her family has lived since before she was born. She’s also a sea witch, channeling the power of the ocean into elemental spells. But when Sunday’s parents announce a big move and suddenly the one thing that’s always made her feel magical is far away, she’s not feeling much like a witch. To reconnect with her power, she’ll have to remember where her magic really comes from—inside.
Loosely inspired by author Andrea Stein's own cross-country move, Sunday the Sea Witch 's catchy rhymes and mystical illustrations speak to both children and adults.

A positive, magical review on Friday the thirteenth.
About a book where the main character is named Sunday.
Oh my good goddesses and queens, what a lovely picture book 'Sunday The Sea Witch' is.
It has practically everything I love and things I didn't realise I loved before: redhaired witch girls, wicca imagery, spellcasting, the sea, the crescent moon, seashells, mermaids, otters, jellyfish, octopi, seals, dolphins, the woods, frogs, pinecones... so much sea life and woodland life!
I want Sunday's life!
It also made me feel nostalgic for the houses and cottages I used to visit on holidays when I was a young girl. Some of those houses were by the sea. Like Sunday, I used to collect shells and stones from the beach, and stuff from wherever there were trees near my home. How wild and magical and dreamlike things are when you are a child; full of possibilities, and opportunities to get down and dirty.
'Sunday The Sea Witch' is at its core about finding yourself, and your inner spark and magic again, after a big change in your life. Change is good, and you're still you, no matter where you are. Whatever your change in affinity is - like with your magic and/or childlike wonder - it is always a positive thing to explore and expand your horizons; therefore you expand on your craft. You still have your heart, as you continue to grow and experience life.
Never lose yourself; what makes you you. Never lose your confidence.
There are beautiful illustrations and rhymes, as well.
'Sunday The Sea Witch' - what a me picture book!
Final Score: 5/5

This is such a wonderful and I absolutely loved seeing a child do a ritual in book. My kids often think they need me for all magic, and while that’s perfectly fine, I love that this can show them that magic is possible for them even if they don’t always have my guiding hand. It’s a great lesson and a great model of witchcraft!

I purchased this book for my daughter, and it is absolutely wonderful! The illustrations are breathtaking, and the story is beautifully written. It’s a lovely way to teach children about adapting to change without losing themselves. I highly recommend this book.

Just pagan perfect!
I absolutely LOVE reading these books to my little. They read easy and glide off the tongue. They make my little see how there are others like her in the world.

Lovely
You don't have to be a kid to enjoy reading this. It is visually pleasing, and I love the story.
