Unterm Bett liegt ein Skelett

Ghost snails, soft and pale in the corners of the room – what could be more delightful than a good scare! Arne Rautenberg brings the undead to life, making them rattle, slime, and snort through his poems. Skeletons, cyclopes, zombies, and frights. He rhymes with wonderfully disgusting ingredients and has a great time playing with syllables, words, and their sounds. And since spookiness and giggles somehow go hand in hand, Nadia Budde's illustrations are just right. The Berlin artist delivers the hairy and bulging-eyed creatures that do their best to frighten – while still being quite funny! Children's poems that are fun, spark a love for language, and encourage play with sounds and crazy thought games. Perfect for anyone who enjoys chewing on the Halloween gummy mix of eyeballs, gummy bites, and blue worms.
