Amie Williamson

Scary Things Are Now Funny Amie Williamson

Annabelle loves stories about witches and goblins and monsters. She loves them, that is, in the daytime. At bedtime those same stories creep back into her imagination and Annabelle is too afraid to sleep. One night her mother has a special idea. Maybe the things that make Annabelle feel scared can make her laugh instead? "It's rare to find a children's book that appeals to all ages, but this one gets our whole family laughing. Amie Williamson brilliantly addresses a universal challenge: the creepy things that are so amusing during the day can leave our kids feeling frightened at night. This lovable book is an excellent parenting tool for teaching children to conquer their own fears in an easy and delightful way. I don't know which is more fun: reading this book with my children, or the imaginative conversations afterwards." -Shari Shallard, mother of Stella 9, Harrison 6, Henry 2
