Having read this story many times to children during a long teaching career, I now have the pleasure of buying it to read to my grandchildren. A timeless, well loved story by a very popular author.

I was trying to teach my 4 year old bones in the body. Thinking back to my childhood I remembered a song about it going something like " the foot bone connected to the leg bone. The leg bone connected to the hip bone " and so on. I knew I had seen it in a book so asked about on face book what the book was called I also remeber "in the dark dark street there was a dark dark house. In the dark dark house there was a dark dark staircase " and so on. After finding the name from my fellow facebookers I looked on eBay. When the book arrived I read it to my daughter singing the bones song. It brought back good memories and she loves the book. It is abit like sharing my child hood with her. I would definatly recommend the book to parents of young children. Its one of them classic books people remember and children still read it today.Read full review
Got this as a birthday gift from my 2 yr old to his dad and we still enjoy it (unbelievable after a million times of reading it!) both of us read it as kids so was nice to be able to share it with our son

I used to read this book and watch the cartoon of it on tv when I was little. Now 25years later my 3 year old daughter is obsessed with it. So glad it's still available to purchase. Thank you

Having a ghost and ghoul infatuated child meant that I needed to delve into my own childhood to find books that stepped away from the usual bunny, butterfly or princess fare on offer for preschool girls. It's been a joy to relive this story with my daughter much to her "spooky mummy!" Delight.
