Who is Winnie the Witch?
Winnie the Witch is a character created by 3 talented people: Valerie Thomas, Korky Paul, and Laura Owen. Valerie Thomas is the original author. Winnie even has a cat named Wilbur that is similar to a black cat Ms. Thomas used to have. Korky Paul is the illustrator of Winnie the Witch. He’s created the image we all think of when Winnie the Witch is mentioned–along with the fantastic castle and Wilbur. And Laura Owen continues to write the stories about Winnie the Witch–there are so many! Look at this list (and it’s not all of them!):
