Books by Ann Mcgovern

There is nothing more pleasing than discovering a secret. In the simplest of texts by award-winning author Ann McGovern and with beautiful, sensitive drawings by Nola Langner, this book reveals some of the very best secrets the world holds, and reveals them in such a way that the very youngest child can share their mystery. Parents of children age three to six will agree with the New York Times: "Fine for the youngest reader."

Young hobgoblins will be squiggling and giggling at this madcap treasury of spooky poems, tricks, games, stories, and limer-eeks. Stage a scary treasure hung with Outwitting the Witch. Tell your friends to Feel the Corpse--but don't tell them what the grisly parts really are! Be clever wizards when you make handkerchiefs disappear with the Galloping Ghost trick. Shiver at chilling stories, like The Velvet Ribbon. Fill in in the rhymes in The Terrible Talky Not-Quite. Put on Dr. Diabolical skit and you'll split your sides laughing. For Halloween and all year long. Delightful illustrations add to the fun.
