Fun, bold illustrations. Finnigan is a cute little skeleton, although the food he is craving is yucky (in my opinion). It is a Halloween feast he wants, eyeballs, bat wings, frog legs, etc. Finnigan is a clever little guy. Great book to add to our Halloween collection. I am glad I read some reviews on this book. It is a Halloween version of a classic book called, "Stone Soup." I have to say, I have never heard of it. Just added another book to my to read list. Spooky Halloween twist on the classic tale, "Stone Soup." I like the illustrations and the way Finnigin, the main character, is always prepared with his eating stool, eating spoon, and his eating mouth when he travels across the "lovely, barren land." The "Eater" is smart and eventually gets all the ghoulish creatures in the town to willingly give up their bat wings, stewed eyeballs, etc. for the betterment of the magical bone soup!
What do You think about Bone Soup (2008)?
Great illustrations, great story. That Finnigan sure is a sneaky guy! But everyone in town benefits.
