Review
Mary McScary takes great pleasure in frightening everyone and everything. That is, until her cousin Harry comes to visit. Despite numerous tactics, he is just not frightened, but rather, embraces the spiders, snakes, and everything else Mary presents to him. However, one last try does, indeed make Harry run away screaming. Large illustrations that fill the pages are wonderful. The children and animals are very expressive. There is lots going on that is fun to look at. This will give young children a laugh for sure.
Overall Book Score: very good
