Town in the Mountains

the Mountains
It's a dark and gloomy night when two children decide to visit a ghost town. It's lonely. It's deserted.
And it's certainly eerie. The main street is filled with tumbledown storefronts and there's not a soul
in sight. But then the kids spot a boarded-up creaky, creepy cabin. Do they dare enter? What will they
find? And what is with all those bones their dog is collecting?
Deliciously spooky, fun-filled artwork brings the story to ghostly life. Back matter includes information on ghost towns and the history of the song.

“'There’s a ghost town in the mountains, turn back now!'
Garrigue’s cartoonish illustrations and luridly lovely lilac color scheme, along with
Becker’s jaunty
verse, make for an exploit that’s creepy but never overwhelmingly so. The varied, echoing
refrain—“Scrim-scram! Step-stomp! Click-clack! Bump-thump!”—should guarantee enthusiastic audience
participation.
A tuneful and deliciously scary escapade, perfect for Halloween. (Picture book. 5-8)”
