Kindergarten-Grade 3–As green goblins gather in the woods for their annual Halloween party, readers get a glimpse of their world. The spine-chilling array of ghoulish guests is all smiles and the creatures' behavior seems, well, a lot like children getting ready to have fun. They are looking for a good fright, and think they are getting one when a ghost tells shivery tales. But then an owl announces the approach of "the scariest creatures of all," sending the partyers into hiding. Will listeners predict that the new arrivals are trick-or-treaters? Children will be drawn to the skillful use of color and charmed by the details Costello provides. The use of perspective creates an alternating sense of safety and intimacy, scariness and comfort. As the story builds to its climax, a page may have as many as four pictures. From the delightful cover through the charming rhyming text and enchanting illustrations, readers will be grabbed, teased, and tickled by this appealing tale.–Mary Hazelton, Warren Community School, ME |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
I'm a firm believer that good poetry teaches children a great deal. Not only about the subject at hand, but about the lyric nature of our language and good bit about spelling and sentence construction as well.
Thus we all welcome David Costello's brilliant book, "Here They Come!" Not only is the poetry good, but the topic is fun and treated with great humor. Text follows so you can judge yourself. {my Amazon 'Look Inside' feature would load any pages and I can't tell if it's a problem on my side or theirs.}
Here comes our chance for a Halloween fright,
For this is the place every Halloween night
Where the scariest creatures are known to appear,
And that's why the party is here every year:
Where the path in the woods takes a bend and a turn,
Round a circle of stones where a fire can burn
And light up the scene by the old hollow tree.
It's an excellent place for a party to be.
Five Stars. Not in the least scary. Good artwork that appeals to children. The poetry is first rate. The plot involves two little `creatures' whose mother has told them that they are in for a good party and an ultimate scare. A scare that is not from what your children might expect. |
