What's the best way to help a skeleton get over his hiccups?

Ghost tries to help Skeleton get rid of the hiccups.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
Skeleton's persistent hiccups prevent him from carving a pumpkin and other activities. "The commonplace condition and unlikely victim make for offbeat-hic-comedy," wrote PW. Ages 3-6. (Sept.) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
From The Critics
Skeleton woke up only to discover he had the hiccups. His friend Ghost, attired in a backwards baseball cap, tells him to try several cures, such as to eat some sugar and drink some water upside down. When they fail, Ghost attempts to scare the hiccups away. It isn't until he brings out a mirror that Skeleton is cured. Schindler's wonderful, fragile-looking skeleton is painted against a dark background. He wakes up in a bed that has a tombstone as the headboard. The brief text is enhanced by the creative sight jokes. For example, Skeleton brushes his teeth and his lower jaw pops out; he polishes his bones and his left arm bones detach; and as he eats the sugar, it falls out through his ribcage. Words and pictures come together to create an off-beat tale that will tickle the funny bones of primary grade children. 2002, Margaret K McElderry/ Simon & Schuster,
— Sharon Salluzzo

    SO much fun!

    Oh boy, this book is totally fun! My 3 yr old son loves skeletons and I bought it for him for Halloween (but I think it'd be appropriate year round). He loooooooves it and asks me to read it over and over. It's a very easy read with just 1 sentence per page. The skeleton is cute - not too scary. So fun and cute!

    Instant Hit!

    Love this book and so does my 16 month old.We have been reading this book to our son since he was around 8 months and he LOVES it,it's a bedtime must for him,he loves having it read out loud and looking at the cute illustrations,he'll even bring the book to me to read it to him over and over.

    Sometimes to mix it up we read it in different voices and tones,he even claps at the end of the book.

    If you love spooky things and Halloween this book is perfect.

    Hilarious!

    This isn¿t an ordinary book. It¿s truly an original, and the artwork is the shining star. S.D. Schindler's work, the same illustrator of Big Pumpkin, and The Runaway Pumpkin is fresh and creative. In no way are the pictures scary, or upsetting. In fact, the artist goes out of his way to add expression, and even places a baseball cap on Ghost in an attempt to make him look more friendly. This is a humorous take on an affable skeleton that has a problem with hiccups.
