The
Beast of Blue Mountain – A Campfire Story for the Fearful, by Lucy
Adams, is a charming poetical story. The illustrations and the story
itself are well done. The pacing is good and kept the pages turning
right to the end. This glossy blue book made a perfect gift for my
grandson. I can hear him reading it over and over. “Crunch, crunch.
Swish, swish…What is that noise in the night?” This one is a winner. I
highly recommend it.

After
so many children's books that require a nap half way through, this book
was a pleasant change of pace. I read it to my four year old daughter
and at first I was thinking it may be too scary, but I kept on. She was
captivated by it. The reason she was captivated was because this book is
fun to read out loud. I wanted to read this book with a lot of
animation in my voice. My daughter hid her head, gasped where she should
and giggled. At the end of the book she laughed and said, "I like that
book, it is really funny." It will remind the reader of the good 'ole
campfire stories that we all loved to be "scared" by. A great fun read
for children and adults.

My
kids love love love this book! It has quickly become a favorite. It is
just scary enough to keep them captivated but also very funny. My oldest
even brought it to Show & Share to share with his class. I highly
recommend it.
