"Dracula rises in the night, searching for a neck to bite." From aliens to zombies, this spooky book features denizens of the dark for each letter of the alphabet. Although the rhyming text is occasionally inconsistent and Kutner fudges a bit with the letter Q, the moody illustrations are appropriately gruesome. Young horror fans will enjoy the creepy subject matter on a dark and stormy night.
