Looking For a Children's Book I Read When I Was a Kid?

Question

I can't figure out the title of it. Can you help?

It was written in the late '70s. It had this witch in it, and she had a skin complexion that looked like a bunch of tangled-up vines. She was uuuUUU-gly!

I remember on one page she was chasing some kids and said, "I'll gobble you yet!"

I think there was a rose in the book too, but I could be mistaken.

Answer 1

This is the one I was thinking of:

Let me know if that is right. Hope so!
