READ THESE BOOKS IF YOU DARE! A HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN

As of this post, there are 5 days, 3 hours, and 13 minutes (and counting) left until Halloween. What better way to get in  the Halloween spirit (hee hee) than by reading some really great spooky, scary, or just plain silly books? Each day this week I'll highlight one of my faves!

Up first: The Monsterologist: A Memoir in Rhyme by Bobbi Katz & Adam McCauley. Love monsters? You've got to read this one! From the product description: "Open this memoir...if you dare! For inside this collection of letters, notes, and interviews lie the results of the monsterologist's bone-chilling research. In engaging rhyme, the monster master tells all about Count Dracula (""When you visit Transylvania, be sure to stay with me""); issues a werewolf warning; and dishes on trolls, ghosts, witches, ogres, and myriad mythological and literary creatures. Designed to look like a treasured scrapbook, every page features an eye-catching mix of drawings, photos, and handwritten text. Plus, kids will love the die-cut, gatefolds, and other cool surprises throughout. "
