This book was adorable and we had a very fun time reading it together. This is such a great book! Although this book is noted for kids in the middle grade age group. It was also great for Awesome Annie who just started school. Many of the words used in this book are part of her sight words she needs to learn. And this way she was able to learn them in a fun way!
The story in this book was cute and inventive. It will get kids to use their imagination and have a fun time reading! We would recommend this to those who love animals and are looking for a slightly creepy story this Halloween.
