What do you do if your child is scared of something? Write and illustrate a book that helps dissipate all fear around the subject is what! Well, that's what happened with Swedish parents Inger and Lasse Sandbeg. A conversation with their son on his fear of ghosts led the husband and wife team to create a series of stories about Little Spook and his family.
In this installment (the books are small and perfect for a young child's hand), Little Spook invites the Prince to investigate some strange noises in the castle. It turns out that all the wailing and screaming belongs to Little Spook's baby sister who is very good at mimicking the noises she hears. From this point on, spreads are split with the little sister making a wonderful variety of noises which are displayed on the recto. These are sweet little stories that would even work now. Would love to see them reprinted.
