Hiti, Samuel Waga’s Big Scare, Carolrhoda
Books, 2012. $16.95. Content: G. PICTURE BOOK.
Waga is a
creepy little monster who likes to scare.
Unfortunately for him, his scare is lost. If he doesn’t find his scare before morning, Waga will
disappear. He searches around all
sorts of spooky haunts to find it, with no luck. When it seems that Waga will be gone forever, he remembers
where to find his lost scare.
When
I opened this book the interesting illustrations and catchy start to the story
made it seem pretty promising. I
love a bit of nonsense, but this was too disjointed. Everything just suddenly happened or just “was” because the
author decided it to be so. There
wasn’t much flow to the story. The
ending is supposed to give a good scare, but I just wasn’t impressed.
Pre-K, El (K-3)-OPTIONAL.
