Hampire!
&#8220;Building suspense and a sense of nocturnal dread, Bardhan-Quallen&#8217;s (The Hog Prince) rhymes are filled with puns (&#8217;&#8221;We&#8217;re sitting ducks,&#8221; the duck announced&#8217;), and the antics of the frantic duck and the animals he rouses should have readers laughing.&#8221; (Publishers Weekly)&#8220;Kids will feast on this deliciously scary tale over and over. &#8221; (Kirkus Reviews)&#8220;Fine&#8217;s paintings exaggerate the animals&#8217; terror to comic effect (funniest is the pony cowering in the corner), and his canted angles give this just the right absurdist tone.&#8221; (ALA Booklist)&#8220;A deliciously macabre choice for a not-too-spooky classroom read-aloud.&#8221; (School Library Journal)
