The House of Boo

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Katya Krenina. On a long ago Halloween, three children dress as ghosts and visit the house of Boo Scoggins. Illustrated with spooky artwork that emphasizes shades of black and gray, the children encounter bats, a phantom, and a freshly dug grave as they make their way up the hill to Boo's house. The poem's rhyme occasionally falters, and a typo in the explanation of the rhyme scheme on the last page will confuse readers.
