Reviews
Ages 5-8. A good cumulative tale for Halloween, this picture book concerning events at a haunted house actually begins, "One dark and stormy night. . .ÿ20." First, Ghost begins to wail, then Stool begins to thump, Broom begins to Swish, and so on until the place is really jumping with spooky effects. The text, which evidently was first published in another form in 1971, is simple enough for a novice storyteller to learn, but in telling the story alone one would miss the visual atmosphere provided by Root's effective artwork. In the deep-toned paintings, shadowy lights illuminate the scenes of usually inanimate objects come to life. For those who like their scary stories spooky rather than silly or sugar-coated, here's a picture book to share. Carolyn Phelan

Shipping terms
SHIPPING ESTIMATES ARE BASED ON 500g PACKAGES.
MammyBearsBooks has individual book shipping costs already calculated but, at present, the AbeBooks system can not accommodate this.
For parcels over 500g, the cost to each international delivery zone has been added to the book description.
For parcels under 500g, any optional international flat rate letter delivery cost has been added.
A package which is over 500g weight will generate a request for extra payment
The intention is for the shipping charged to reflect reality.
Document packages, which fit into specific Australia Post envelope sizes, are below 500g and less than 2cm thick, may be considered as a letter and sometimes be considerably cheaper than if the same document is considered as a parcel.
All books going overseas are tracked. - a requirement of Abe Books.
All returns are by agreement and available only in the case of gross misrepresentation or error.
Australia Post have online calculators available if you want to check out the shipping cost.
To check, simply enter dimensions and weight (be sure to add a margin to each dimension and additional weight to allow for packaging.)
The difference will be finance charges, commissions, & idiosyncratically, exchange rate variations.
Australia Post has a complex price structure which is not completely consistent, and sometimes is at the discretion of a human postmaster.
