Summary: Great creepy book
Comment: I don't know which I like better, the frightening poems or ghoulish artwork, but both come together magically to make this a great Halloween book. Would not recommend for children under 6, but older children will get a reak kick out of it. Very unique and I think will be a classic.

Summary: Very dull and boring
Comment: This book was not for a young child to read. Do not recommend at all.

Summary: Love Collecting Books
Comment: As a big fan of Lane Smith's work, I was instantly attracted to this book. A collector of Halloween picture books, I knew that this book would be a frightfully, wonderful addtion to my collection. The illustrations of this book set the right eerie tone for Halloween. Eve Merriam's poems are wonderfully sinister! I am a 6th grade teacher and will definitely read some of the poems to my class during Halloween week, however I would not recommend this book for young children. The tone of the book is not just scary but sinister, the letter D for instance should never be read aloud to students. It speaks of the demonic characters Beezlebub and Satan. The illustration is wonderful but the words are not appropriate for students. The other letters are not as evil but still conjure up creepy thoughts about Halloween. This is a wonderful addition to a Halloween collection that will be kept on my personal shelf for me to read aloud.
