A Wonderfully Spooky New Halloween Collection

What is a grimerick? That is the question. A grimerick is a limerick with a dash of grim. Add a few guffaws, giggles, and a bit of spook juice, and mix it all together with a funny bone, and...voila! A grimerick. But a grimerick is quite more than that. If you read one without first looking under the bed, locking all the doors, or turning the lights down very low, you may just spook yourself into next week. Susan Pearson has written 20 individual grimericks that will keep young readers laughing through the night, and maybe checking under their beds every few minutes. Each grimerick is about a different monster, goblin, ghoul, or ghost, and features a short little grimerick, with an accompanying illustration by the marvelously talented Gris Grimly. Grimly's illustrations bring the grimericks to life, while Pearson's wonderfully funny and spooky limericks will give readers the giggles. A wonderfully spooky new book that the whole family can read together. Erika Sorocco Book Review Columnist for The Community Bugle Newspaper
