I did enjoy the Dancing Skeleton. Cynthia Defelice writes so many different types of books and that's what I like about her.

A picture book version of a folktale in which an dead but very ornery husband refuses to stay in his grave and sits in the parlor until he becomes a skeleton - but a visiting fiddler gets him to dance until his bones come apart and can be reburied. My copy has a jacket with a picture by the illustrator, Robert Anderson Parker. Very funny, and a good tale for Halloween.
