Ghost Eats It All: Little Boo Books

Publishers Weekly

The paper-over-board Ghost Eats It All! by Janee Trasler focuses on one hungry ghost who, despite Monster's grumbling tummy and disapproving looks, does not share his egg, apple, candy or cake. Little kids will laugh when Monster turns the tables, scaring Ghost with an ironic "boo" so he can eat the leftovers. Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

There is a very hungry ghost in this delightful picture book. He chomps on a variety of tasty treats, right in front of an equally hungry Frankenstein friend. With each turn of the page we watch as Frankenstein's facial expressions change from friendly and curious to hurt and angry. Frankenstein formulates a simple plan and uses his monster abilities to get a few snacks for himself. The illustrations in this charming book are bright and colorful. There is only one sentence on each page and the corresponding pictures will help beginning readers to decipher the large printed text. This book is innocent and fun, and can be used to teach a lesson about sharing. Young children will undoubtedly befriend the characters in this story and will delight in reading it over and over.
