No Love Potion with Christina Shawn

A funny and heartfelt witch picture book about friendship, feelings, and the unexpected magic of love.

Book People favorite Christina Shawn returns on Saturday, October 3rd at 1 PM with No Love Potion: A Witchy Tale of Magic and Heart.

Bettina is not into Valentines. Or hearts. Or any of that ooey-gooey love-stuff. She’s into serious magic.

With her cauldron bubbling and her ingredients lined up—bat wings, beard hair, and just the right amount of gloom—Bettina is brewing her most powerful spell yet: a No-Love Potion.

But when Ingredient #9 unexpectedly hops into her heart, everything changes. Suddenly, her potion doesn’t look—or feel—like what she planned. Could a little love be the most magical ingredient of
all?

Full of humor, heart, and hocus-pocus.

Christina Shawn is a reading specialist, literacy coach, and author who writes about magical moments in our everyday lives.

She lives in Richmond, Virginia with her husband and three kiddos, who prove that love is incredibly magical.

Her friends say she cackles when she laughs – maybe that’s why she loves witches so much. That, and the potions!
