BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
The house on the hill is afraid that no one wants to live in it because it might be haunted. SO, it will try very hard not to do anything that will make it seem even more haunted. Try as it might, though, when the wind howls through and rattles everything, the ouse kind of likes the noise. Is there maybe a family out there who would like it just the way it is?
For a mildly spooky ghost-ish story, Sima has written a treat. The house has a lot of personality and expressions that are a delight to pause and enjoy. Have children discuss who might want to live in a haunted-ish house before you turn the page and show them.
