Go Away Big Green Monster is a bit of a classic spooky tale. As you go through the story a big green monster appears bit by bit. Big yellow eyes, big red mouth, sharp pointy teeth.......
The strong colours on a black background are very effective and once the monster appears in full, children then have a chance to shout "Go away big green face and so on until the monster disappears. Which is great for the more nervous child.

Another corker of a book by Nick Sharratt. This man can do no wrong! This time we enter the Witch's Kitchen and depending on which way the flaps are opened, there is either a very naughty or very nice surprise. Very cleverly done. A great talking point as you go through the book again and again.
My last pick is an older title that stands up to being brought out every year. Frank is a monster who loves to dance. He dresses up for the occassion with his top hat, he put ants in his pants and climbs on stage to thrill a frankly appalled audience, who are horrified to see poor Frank fall apart as he dances. All done in quirky rhyme.
