| | | Skeleton wakes up with the hiccups. His friend, Ghost, suggests several ways Skeleton should try to get rid of them--holding his breath, drinking water upside down, pressing his fingers over his eyeballs. But nothing works. Finally Ghost has an idea--and he scares those hiccups right out of Skeleton. Full-color illustrations.
Annotation:
Skeleton, aided by his friend Ghost, attempts to cure himself of the hiccups. Colorful gouache, ink, and watercolor illustrations accompany the text.

"While the concept is clever, it's Schindler's paintings, done with gouache, ink, and watercolor, that carry the day, showing Skeleton's own unique problems--water pours of his hollow eyes when he drinks it upside down, his teeth spin out of his head when he brushes them--that make a joke of the circumstances." 08/01/2002 |
