Laura Krauss Melmed, perhaps best known for her classic picture-book, The Rainbabies, turns her attention toward Halloween (my favorite holiday!), in this tale of a witch and her jet-fueled broom. Told in rhyming verse, with a cumulative refrain, Fright Night Flight sees a succession of spooky creatures - "a lurking, smirking Vampire," or "a howling, growling Werewolf" - jumping on the broom, all eventually heading... to YOUR (the reader's) house!

Perfect for reading aloud, this spooky tale is particularly well suited for younger children (provided they aren't too easily scared by the idea of a group of monsters showing up on their doorstep), who will enjoy its snappy rhythm and fun illustrations. I've seen it compared to Julia Donaldson's Room on the Broom, which is currently on my to-read list - we'll see which one I prefer! ( )

Ours is soft cover, we love the rhymes on this one, and we especially enjoy looking for the creatures in the illustrations. ( )
