Resource Type

Book - Child

Description

"The Ghost-Eye Tree tells of a young brother and sister sent by their mother to fetch a bucket of milk on a windswept night. To do so, they must pass the dread "Ghost-Eye tree," a shadowed and sinister looking snag which they are sure is haunted. Brother has a tough-guy beet up fedora to bolster his courage. The beautiful picture book is rich in language, althought the attempt to capture dialect occasionally results in grammatical awkwardness. With its sombre shades and deliciously scary spookiness, it will make a super Halloween read-aloud and has a lot to say about gruff but genuine family affection." From School Library Journal
