Tina loves chocolate. She includes it in some form at every meal.
Tina's health teacher insists that "You are what you eat." Tina wishes this were true and wakes up to find herself made of chocolate.
The illustrations are definitely going to make any chocolate lover hungry. But being made of chocolate will lose its appeal.

At the Old Haunted House

The text begins as a counting and rhyming book. When the count gets to ten, three trick-or-treaters bring in a fun rhyming party.
The illustrations have a cartoon look that makes them fun and fit the text which uses its font to become part of the illustrations. they are a fun look at a fantasy Halloween party.
