The Ghostly Carousel
Delightfully Frightful Poems
A zombie family reunion, a “Jekyll lantern,” a giggling undertaker, a telekinetic warlock . . . are you scared yet?
Sure to induce shrieks and giggles in equal measure, Calef Brown’s poems present a wonderfully creepy cast of characters. Richly detailed paintings add to the frightful fun!
“Employing clever puns and unexpected end rhyme, Brown creates as engaging an aural experience as a visual one. . . . [E]mboldens young readers to find fun in things that go bump in the night.”—Kirkus Reviews
“[W]ickedly humorous and gently eerie.”—Publishers Weekly
“A highly recommended purchase for Brown fans and those who relish poems that go bump in the night.”—School Library Journal
“[A]n imaginative exercise perfect for the Halloween season.”—The Horn Book Magazine
