This collection of poems by Lee Bennett Hopkins is great for the age group 1st- 2nd grade. This is a wonderful collection of poems for the Halloween season. The illustrations are detailed and aid the reader with understanding. It is a poem of a child asking for a bed time story. She requests scary things and these scary things are considered nice by the little witch child. You can have the children write down their favorite night time story and then have them compare it to the elements the little girl requested in her story. You can also have the children split up into small groups, have them combine thoughts to illustrate and write a story.
