RECESS October 24

Hi Boys and Girls-I just bought the cutest Halloween story at a Book Faire. It is called "When the Goblins Came Knocking" by Anna Grossnickle Hines. She is the illustrator as well and the pictures are wonderful. Scroll down to see pictures of the little children in their costumes. Mrs. Hines has also written some other books-among them are "Big Like Me", and "What Joe Saw". She has also illustrated some books written by her husband Gary.

In this story, a little boy sees all of the children who come to his door to Trick-Or-Treat and he is sooo scared that he hides, and finally even cries-but wait ‘til next year and who do you think will have the scariest costume of all? Well, I won’t tell-you have to read the book. (*Secret Message-many of the words rhyme: tied, hide, cried, terrified.) Hope you like the book. Mrs. L.
