The Spooky Trail — Keith Faulkner

Here's a funny, scary picture storybook that features full-page color illustrations rendered in an assortment of spooky, shadowy colors. It also has lift-the-flap features, one of them showing the vampire Count as he emerges from his coffin. Among the Count's friends are Bertie Bones, Winnie the Witch, the Werewolf and the Mummy -- and they've all had a terrible day's sleep in their haunted house. They were kept awake by a mysterious and horrible sound emanating from some spooky corner of the house. What can it be? They go off to investigate, and at last they make a hair-raising discovery. Kids who follow the spooky trail to the final page will first be surprised, then will burst out in giggles as they pull a tab and share in a shocking, pop-up discovery. Color illustrations on every page.
