Bone Soup: A Spooky, Tasty Tale

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tom Knight. In this playful Halloween-themed retelling of the folktale "Stone Soup," three hungry witches have only a bone to eat. They beg local monsters for eerie ingredients such as earthworms, eyeballs, and cobwebs, promising there's no trick, just a tasty treat. Greens, blues, and oranges dominate the cartoonish, digitally colored charcoal and pencil illustrations. A soup recipe (substituting edible ingredients for witchy ones) is appended.
