| 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. |

Praise
Kirkus Reviews
"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
