A witch, a bat, a skeleton, a jack-o’-lantern, a ghost, and other Halloween friends are all hiding in the pages of this clever book. Deanna Caswell’s playful haiku cleverly hint at the creatures revealed after each turn of the page while Bob Shea’s bright illustrations capture the scary silliness.
Enjoy frights that delight while enjoying the satisfying rhythms of haiku.
