5.0 out of 5 stars morbid and hysterical
I love this little book. In fact, I used it for a primer lesson on inference and characterization with my sixth graders. Great illustrations and slightly elusive little poems for each page with a clever, witty ending.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rather dull
The bored/tired look of Cherise accompanied with uninspiring rhymes just makes this an empty read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark Humor but a Real Treat!!!, September 16, 2010
This review is from: Cherise the Niece (Hardcover)
According to the [...] website: "The National Cartoonist Society Nominated Cherise The Niece as one of just three in the category of Best Illustrated Book!!"

And I can believe it. The chosen illustrations and simple rhymes are exactly what are needed for this little story.

If dark humor is your cup of tea, then I highly recommend "Cherise the Niece" for a chuckle!

A word of caution: Don't let the cartoonish nature of this book fool you, this book is not for children. As it states, it is definitely for 14+.
