After Squidnight

(2) K-3 There's nary a ghost or goblin here--but there might as well be. Squids, as the creepily clever rhyming text claims, emerge from the ocean under cover of dark, "and while you snore / the squids squeeze / underneath your door" and draw on walls, dolls, and you--and that, as you'll tell your parents, is how all this ink got everywhere. Shadowy art in black, white, and inky blue enhances the eerie atmosphere. Once After Squidnight gets its tentacles into you, you'll never think of squids the same way again.
