Just in time for a Halloween, a repost from 2009.
When Jezebel’s Papa leaves for the war, she runs away to the
forest. Despite the “googery-boogery creepy-crawly catchy” feeling in that
spooky place, she claims it for her own.
As the seasons pass, the lonely
feeling of missing her Papa doesn’t. Again and again she seeks out her spot
even though she’s up against spiders, swamp ghosts, and pixie lights libel to
steal her soul.
The book is Jezebel’s
Spooky Spot by Alice Ross and Kent Ross and illustrated by Ted Rand.
Like Jezebel’s Little Brother, your listener will be hanging on to every word.
And you won’t mind reading it again because how often do you get to say “lawse
a mercy”?
