Murguia, Bethanie Deeney The Too-Scary Story. PICTURE BOOK.
Arthur A. Levine, 2017. $17.
Gracie and little brother Walter are ready for their bedtime
story. Gracie wants something really
scary, but Walter is not so sure. Each
time Gracie encourages Dad to amp up the scare he does, but then he brings it
back down for Walter – until the very, scary end!
This will be so much fun to read aloud. Teague skillfully manipulates the tension
within the story, creating a perfect experience for young readers. This could also be used as a literature
lesson in older grades to show the value of the ebb and flow of action.
Pre-K, EL (K-3) – ESSENTIAL.
