This is about a little girl who is scared to go in the basement because she is convinced that there is a witch under the basement stairs. Every time she is asked to go down there she brings something to trick the witch. But, when she is all out of ideas she brings her stuffed elephant to help her. When she drops "Ellie" under the stairs, she builds her own armor, and goes down there to face the witch; the witch was no longer there. This story is great for kids who are scared of something, because once they face whatever it is, the fear they have will disappear. ( )
