It seems like it should be a little awkward. The language is a little stilted/formal in places, and quite simple (which is fair - it’s a kids book). Half the fun, I think, is the intonation used when being told. I haven’t heard it told in years, but it’s still ingrained.

Cute afterword by Munsch’s wife, and I like hearing the history behind how he became a storyteller.
Bad formatting on the author/I’ll. Info section - some of the words in Munsch’s profile overlap, making it hard to read.

Second intro note… maybe read it after the story if you haven’t read it before, since it gives away the ending. Oops.

Munsch is a Canadian author. The pub. Info shows it as more or less a Canadian publication, as well.
So why on Earth would they choose Chelsea Clinton to do the foreword? Most kids today wouldn’t have any idea who she is, and growing up I didn’t know anyone who cared, so todays’ parents probably don’t care either?
