About this title

Synopsis

Five ghost stories blend spookiness and humor by taking young readers into the worlds of quirky ghosts and complementing each tale with funny twists. Original.

Reviews

Gr. 2^-3. Five silly horror stories will make kids shiver with fear and laugh out loud--and want to read. The pictures in full color, with heavy cross-hatching, show ghosts, witches, skeletons, and graveyards; best of all is the close-up of the hairy toe ("Who's got my hairy toe?") in a new variation of the old folktale. There are haunted houses with creaking stairs and a cumulative rhyme that collects a bat, a zombie, a skeleton "bony and white," and other monsters. Finally, there's a riddle story with ghostwriter puns and a ghost who comes out of the graveyard to say, "Boo!" Part of the Hello Reader! series, this will also make a popular read-aloud.
