Ghost Town in the Mountains
A hauntingly hilarious riff on the tune "She’ll Be Comin’ ’Round the Mountain,”
It’s a dark and gloomy night when two children decide to visit a ghost town. It’s lonely. It’s deserted. And it’s certainly eerie. The main street is filled with tumbledown storefronts and there’s not a soul in sight. But then the kids spot a boarded-up creaky, creepy cabin. Do they dare enter? What will they find? And what is with all those bones their dog is collecting?
Deliciously spooky, fun-filled artwork brings the story to ghostly life. Back matter includes information on ghost towns and the history of the song.
