Inching closer to my 31 hour goal. Enjoyed this spooky read. Loved the illustrations.
Been wanting to read this for a year now, and I finally made it happen just in time for Halloween. Such a great story, and just creepy enough for kiddos. I love the illustrations too. This is the kind of tale to retell by a fire outdoors! 💀
Very cute story; I highly recommend this quick read to anyone. 💀💗 #skull #wickedwhispers @eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
The story, the art, the wry humor-An excellent read
for the spooky season, without being too creepy for the younger humans.

Ahh folktales, they go from kinda sweet to kinda dark in the blink of an eye - and I love that about them!
Gorgeous illustrations as you‘d expect from Jon Klassen and a story that I‘ll definitely be thinking about for awhile. May we all be blessed with an Ottila as a friend and not foe.
Great authors note at the end about how he came across the folk tale originally and how folk tales change over time.
