Twelve Terrible Things

(4) K-3 The monster under the bed, the creepy birthday clown, the never-ending car trip: this list of terrible childhood experiences will amuse nostalgic adults more than it will the picture book set. Full-bleed watercolor illustrations with reader-as-main-character perspective and a minimal text may encourage discussion of real and imagined anxieties.
