Animated film based on the wonderful children's picture book written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler. The story of a kind witch who invites a surprising collection of animals to join her on her broom, much to the frustration of her cat. The gang ultimately saves the witch from a fearsome dragon, and in gratitude she rewards them with a magnificent new broom which has room for everyone. A magical tale about friendship and family from Magic Light Pictures, the producers of the hugely successful The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child.

A great adaptation. Similar to the book.

Great family Halloween movie based on a book.

Fairly faithful adaptation. A little padding but before you know it... Whoosh, they were gone.

Nice short to watch, it feels like it has just stepped out of the Julia Donaldson books, not something I'll rewatch but enjoyable for kids

Wasn’t expecting much, was just looking for a kid friendly Halloween special, but this impressed us. Fun story your kids will love.

A great adaptation of the children's story.

Has moments of cuteness and comedy, but unfortunately the story is rather drawn out and boring. Probably better as a book for kids.

Great adaptation! You can purchase on Amazon Prime too.

Cute little short that aired on Christmas Eve for the UK. Nothing to complain about, however wouldn't watch it unless it's on telly.
