DID
YOU SAY GHOSTS?
There aren't any ghosts in sight. It's all in your imagination. DID YOU SAY GHOSTS? There's
no such thing as spooks or ghosts. I guarantee it ... well, almost.
So begins a deliciously scary cumulative tale, with the series of possible monsters that follow each scared of something else. Kids will enjoy the humor as well as the slight shiver that these all-star spooks bring. Enriched by noted artist Leonard Baskin's gallery of frightful imaginings, this is not a bedtime book, for the skeletons, witches, and other spooky creatures conjured up will lull no child to sleep! Instead, this is a humorous and spine-chilling repetitive story for older children. "A witty
call and response bedtime rhyme" "A delightedly
creepy cumulative tale ...This would make good story hour fare"
"Michelson's
teasing tone gives young readers the option of laughing or shivering"
"In this
good humored picture book a parent pounces on a child's fear of
things that go bump in the night and transforms it into a game...
The rhyme hurtles along, full of glee, punctuated by a child's loud
shouts of dread-filled surprise."
