Who else lives over in the hollow? A papa mummy and his little mummies two, a mama owl and her little owlets three...and more! And they all have something to say, whether it's to hoot, to howl, to hiss, or to yowl. Inspired by Olive E. Wadsworth's classic counting rhyme, 'Over in the Meadow,' this spooky take on the popular Appalachian poem is a wonderful read-aloud, with its playful rhyme and repetition. It's perfect for readers of all ages who enjoy a fun-not scary-approach to the world of ghosts, werewolves, and their kind.
