Sipping Spiders Through A Straw by Kelly DiPucchio and Gris Grimley is another truly horror-ific picture book, and you might also check out the "Slightly Demented Picture Books" post that Seven Impossible Things had up last year- lots of other good suggestions in there as well :)<BR/><BR/>Boni AshburnBoni Ashburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01397801185274085090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144605744535591088.post-78242623973597219402009-03-20T06:48:00.000-07:002009-03-20T06:48:00.000-07:00Heehee.
