Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
There is enough action and recurring CLOMP CLOMPs, WIGGLE WIGGLEs and SHAKE SHAKEs in Williams's first story to hold any young reader's attention. A brave old woman begins a walk in the forest where she meets two big shoes. Further down the path, a pair of pants, a shirt, two gloves, a hat and a pumpkin head come into sight, each trying to frighten her. When she's back inside her cottage, a KNOCK KNOCK challenges her to open her door. Again, the shoes, pants, shirt, gloves, hat and pumpkin head try to scare her, but find it impossibly discouraging. These assorted items have a callingto frighten someone or somethingand thanks to the ``little old lady'' they become the nastiest scare-crow ever. The fearless woman's brave showing, and her determination not to be afraid, should strike a note of familiarity with children. Lloyd's dark forest settings, wriggling clothing and homey interiors are a perfect complement to the text. (3-7)
From The Critics
A delightful story of a brave little woman who, during a walk through the woods, finally starts to notice the shoes clomping behind her, the pants swishing, and others sounds. Her pace quickens until she makes a dash for her safe, snug little home. There is more to the story, and it has a happy not very scary ending, just right for the little ones. Book (1988) and audiotape for listening or reading along.

    Awesome Book!

    My two year old grandson first heard this book when he was about 18 months old. He loved it. Not long afterwards, he could help "read it". He loves doing the sounds. I would recommend this book highly for parents and grandparents to read to their children.

    Excellent Halloween reading for grandkids

    I like to read seasonal books for the grandkids to get them into the spirit of the holiday. This book was great.

    A classroom and family favorite

    This book is the favorite of both my Pre-kindergarten class and my own two children when they were little. It is fun to act out the parts of the scarecrow parts as well as the little old lady. My class is still asking to read this awesome Halloween story and we are now in January!

    An exciting Halloween book.

    This is an exciting book. It was fun to read. I think other children will like it too.

    GREAT story for pre schoolers at Halloween

    My 4 year old granddaughter was afraid of scarecrows this year. I found this book and it is terrific. It talks about being scared and has repeating phrases that children can pick up and say right along with you. My grandchildren loved it and we read it over and over again and laughed more each time. The pictures are lovely and the story and the ending perfect.

    Entertaining

    This is a light hearted story for the fall season. The lesson learned is that you can turn an uneasy situation into a productive one. My daughter really enjoyed the story and by the end of the first read was able to assist in telling the story the next time.

    Great story-line

    Cute story with repetition suitable for young reader/listeners. Quality graphics; short and sweet! As a grandmother (little old lady) I identified with this story -- read to my 5 year-old grand-daughter, who learned not to be afraid.
