Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

The Haunted Hamburger, and Other Ghostly Stories
Frankie and Franny Ghost beg for a scary bedtime story from their father. He agrees to tell just one story. Soon, one story turns into three -- each scarier that the one before -- at least for ghost children, because the stories are about people. For kids, they will be laugh-out-loud funny stories by David LaRochelle and illustrator Paul Meisel. Not to be missed for Halloween.
