When monster-girl Scary Fright brings home a kitten and starts saying "please" and "thank you, " Mama and Papa Fright decide their little ghoul has become "too" frightful. Full color.
Scary Fright is one book you'll never get tired of reading with your child. I bought it for my son when he was 7 and he loved it! This was one of the books that always went in the backpack when we travelled or had some time to kill. The story is engaging and there's enough clever humor and wordplay to keep parents amused too. And the artwork is just brilliant! Now that my son is too old for picture books, I buy this one as a gift for younger kids and it is always well-received.
Frightfully Good!

This is a really good family book about dealing with "scary, scary" children! A very cute story and I met the author at a book fair. You should see the artwork he'll draw for you in a few minutes. A very nice story with great illustrations.
My son loves this book!

My son read this book in his gifted education class at school. His teacher just happens to be related to the author. My son came home and begged me to buy him this book, because it made him laugh!
"Scary Fright" is a Delightful Flight... of Fancy!!

"Scary Fright, Are You All Right" is an exceptional children's book, a delightful experience in every detail. The story is an intriguing twist, populated with monstrously adorable characters you can't help but fall in love with. Mr. Gibala-Broxholm's sense of character and "ghastly" good humor fills each page with laughter while conveying an important and timely message of love and acceptance.Accompanying the story are pages and pages of artwork that captures the delight and warmth of each scene. Don't just skim over these artistic gems... every page has some charmingly spooky nuance or detail that marks this book as a true work of love by a skilled artist and storyteller (Dr. Ghastly's diploma is a particularly nice touch)!"Scary Fright" is a must-have for your child's library, a story that you will enjoy sharing time and time again. My highest hope is that we get to see Scary and her frightful family again... soon!
