(3) K-3 When the full moon rolls around, a little boy heads to a barbershop; there he cuts the hair of assorted monsters. Silly puns ("shamp-ewww") and visual gags ("Can you take a little off the top?" says a headless man) bolster the humorous premise. The art features scads of creatures, some familiar (Frankenstein's monster) and some made up for this story.
