Description
"An adorable story of friendship and a humorous reminder to respect others' boundaries. Perfect for Halloween or during a sleepover. I plan to share it with my three-year-old grandson." - Sheila Kaye Hoffman "You Can't Scare Me (Willy & Walter) is a very cute colorful story. Love the cute little spider that is hiding in all pages. Good story about what goes around comes around." - Pras S "What a fabulous spin on The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Children need a reminder not to be scared at every little thing. Children need a reminder not to overdo it with the drama too. Why not combine the two into one sweet tale and remind them we can all be friends if we put limits on them all? Nicely played." - Cathi Lipinski Best friends Walter and Willy are having a sleepover. Walter thinks it's fun to scare Willy. But what happens when the tables get turned? A barely scary story about friendship and respect. For best friends ages 4 and up. Guided Reading Level K

About the Author
Bonnie Grubman grew up with a love of reading. As a child, she lived in an apartment with her family, pet turtles, and a parakeet. On hot summer nights, she would cool off on the fire escape with a flashlight and a big stack of books. Bonnie went to nursing school, but later decided to trade her nurse's hat for a classroom full of picture books. She was inspired by her students who found joy and curiosity in everything they saw. Because of these kids, and for all kids, she became a writer. Bonnie lives in Syosset, New York. Judi Abbot was born and raised in Italy. She studied illustration at the art school in Milan. Now, she lives with her family in London. Judy usually works with acrylics, collage and color pencils, but she is also good with digital media. Next to her work as an illustrator, Judy organizes creative workshops for children in bookshops and in libraries.
