Editorial Reviews

Kristi Jemtegaard
Familiarity with Stone Soup, the traditional tale of three hungry soldiers who trick an entire village into making soup for them from a pebble, isn't absolutely necessary to enjoy this deliciously shivery send-up…but it adds to the fun…Kids will eat Bone Soup up.

From The Critics
Finnigin, known for his prodigious appetite, travels the land with his eating stool, eating spoon, and gigantic eating mouth. One Halloween he arrives at a barren place, where a witch has already warned the beast, zombies, etc., who live there of his arrival. "We have barely enough for ourselves," they say, as they hide their spider eggs, dried mouse droppings, and other repulsive provisions and turn Finnigin from their doors. In this ghostly reflection of the traditional tale of Stone Soup, however, Finnigin sets a cauldron to boil in the town square, singing his song of the Bone Soup he makes with his magic bone. The skeptical folks are soon persuaded to add their ingredients. The result, of course, is a "fabulous soup" to share for the Halloween feast. On the jacket we see Finnigin's round face, triangular hole for a nose, curved grin with Chiclets teeth, round eyes popping in anticipation of the eyeball-filled spoon he raises to his mouth. The cover is more sedate, with framed title hung on a striped wall, as our hero peeks over a peeling corner. The illustrator uses pen, watercolor, and collage with digital color to create sketchy, non-frightening, almost appealing odd characters and speech balloons, along with rich details of their homes and activities. The soup itself with labeled ingredients floating on it green surface is almost appetizing. Reviewer: Ken Marantz and Sylvia Marantz

    Adorable Halloween story and beautiful illustrations.

    I was looking for a Halloween story to read to my daughter's 1st grade class. Bone Soup was perfect! It used Halloween characters but wasn't scary and the illustrations were beautiful. I also liked the fact that both the girls and boys enjoyed it. After reading the story, we made our own "bone soup" in a cauldron. Perfect addition to any child's home library or early education classroom.
