The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid Of Anything - Written by Linda Williams and Illustrated by Megan Lloyd

As the little old lady walked home through a dark and scary forest, one-by-one she came upon animated shoes, pants, a shirt, gloves, a hat and a pumpkin head. Each item has it's own specific noise that is fun to mimic. The little old lady claims she is not scared of these items that are following her home. Instead, she gathers them up and puts them to an interesting use. Can you guess what that is?

This story has a lot of funny illustrations and solid repetition. It's great for for acting out and for teaching your child to predict what comes next. This not-so-scary book is a fun Fall read.
