I recommend "Skelly the Skeleton Girl" for anyone, of any age who enjoys a well-crafted children's book. The artwork is STUNNING and garners a five star review on its own! I strongly disagree with the previous review saying the story was lacking. This book may be perceived as a book about Halloween, but it is not. Maybe since the main character is a skeleton girl, it is expected to be a Halloween tale, however, it is not. The story is a mystery of a found bone in the home of Skelly, done very cleverly not only in verse, but in highly detailed illustrations as well. I ordered the book for my son and he loves it. He has read it over and over, as well as having every available adult in our home, (visitors included), read it to him. He almost has the whole book memorized and seems to find something new in the illustrations every time he opens the book. I highly recommend this for anyone is looking for a high quality, beautiful children's book.

My four year old likes this book because he loves spooky, quirky books! The illustrations are awesome. The only negative is that it does not have enough text. If you are looking for one line per page - this book is perfect.
A similar type book that is awesome - with more text - is called Mucumber McGee and the Half-Eaten Hotdog.
My little boy loves that book!

My daughter loves to read it at home. her kindergarten class loves to hear it over and over. Its fun, Gothic, sweet, and pretty.

This is a classic in the making.Totally original with illustrations and written word that only little girls will love. I bought this book for my then 3yr. old niece and she absoloutely adores it. She's memorized virtually the entire book and made up the rest in her little 3 yr. old girl mind. It's priced perfect here on Amazon, other book stores will charge a heaftier penny for it. I bought two of them (brand new) for less than the price of one. You will love this book and so will your kids.They will beg you to read it over and over and over.

My daughter LOVED this book! We checked it out at the library, and we had to get her very own copy!!

This is a cute little book that both my 3 yr. and 6 yr. old loved. It has a cute little story line and keeps the attention of the reader. I saw it in a local toy store and decided to order it on Amazon.

This book is great for the gothic crowd, or those who love halloween and the macabe. The illustrations are fabulous and my four year old daughter loves the book. The story however is a little lacking, but the pictures make up for it.
