Ering, Timothy Basil The Almost Fearless Hamilton
Squidlegger. PICTURE BOOK. Candlewick Press, 2014. $17. Content: G.
Hamilton Squidlegger is afraid of nothing - except bedtime.
Hamilton’s dad promises him a delicious, swampy cake - but only if he
stays in his own mud puddle all night long. That night Hamilton has a
wonderful, mud-filled dream that helps him overcome his final fear. I am
a fan of Ering’s art and his very silly picture books. While i don’t
think one might of good dreams will cure a fear of the dark, I like his trick
of making friends with your fears.
