It’s Halloween time and brave Simon Lester Henry Strauss all but drags his scary-cat friends into a haunted house filled with a cast of creepy creatures to prove he isn’t scared of anything. Although his friends are running scared at every turn, every new room, every creak, and every shadow, brave Simon Lester Henry Strauss really seems to be afraid of nothing. But is there truly nothing that scares him?

Teresa Murfin’s illustrations are what really shine about this children’s book. There is a great amount of detail in each of the drawings and they all appear to be quite creepy with a unique and beautiful style. However, without the rhymes of Laurie Friedman’s story and the brave character Simon Lester Henry Strauss it would probably be too scary for kids. Yet with Simon Lester Henry Strauss it is clear that pronouncing his long name is the only thing to be scared of… and maybe one other small thing.
