A special edition of this classic picture book to celebrate its 40th anniversary - with a glow-in-the-dark cover! This is the first book in Janet and Allan ahlberg's bestselling, spook-tacular Funnybones series! Meet the skeletons - The big skeleton, the little skeleton and the dog skeleton. They live in a dark dark cellar of a dark dark house on a dark dark Hill and so the word repetition continues through this light-hearted story for early readers. The skeletons venture out of their cellar one night to find someone to scare, but everyone is in bed so they amuse themselves by scaring each other and playing with the skeleton animals that live in the zoo.
